When at home:

Always put a chain on the door

Look through the peephole before answering

Don’t let a stranger in

Keep your valuables close to you

Walk in well-lit streets

How about Jack? Does he feel safe in the country? Yes, he does.

Let’s visit Jack, he has some advice for you:

Install an alarm system properly

Fit dusk-to-dawn lights around the house

People in the country know each other very well

If a stranger comes to your house it is OK to check his ID.
