This is part of our #OpHawkHants work to tackle burglary. We want to hear from you - have you seen anything suspicious in your area, especially now that the nights have drawn in? You can report suspicious behaviour here: https://www.hampshire.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/soh/seen-or-heard/
Homes that appears occupied are less likely to be targeted by burglars, installing light switch timers can help to make it appear occupied. Likewise, dusk to dawn or sensor lighting to the front and rear of your home can help deter potential thieves.
