Are you a caravan owner?
Police in the north coast are reminding caravan owners to ensure their vans are secure and emptied of any high value goods when they are not being used.
1. Don’t leave anything valuable on display. Take all your valuables with you when you leave the caravan.

3. Use security markings. Where possible, valuable items such as laptops and televisions should be marked with your postcode and house number using a UV marker. This helps police identify the owner of the recovered property.
4. If you have a shed beside your caravan, keep your shed in good condition and fit a good close shackle padlock to the door. Valuables inside should also be marked with your postcode.
5. Get to know your neighbours. Keep an eye on each others caravans when they are vacant. Don’t be afraid to report anything suspicious to the site manager or the PSNI immediately.
