Halloween

Advice for parents and young people

• Adults should accompany young children who go trick or treating
• Take care when out on dark nights – stick to well lit areas and stay visible by wearing bright or reflective clothing
• Only call at the homes of people you know and are expecting you
• Please respect the wishes of others – if there’s a notice asking you not to call at someone’s home, please don’t. 

Advice for residents

• You can display our poster at your front door or window to let people know if you'd like to receive trick or treaters, or not.
• Either way, you do not have to open your door to anyone. If people call and their behaviour worries you, let a neighbour or your Neighbourhood Watch contact know.

Eggs and flour

Throwing eggs and flour isn't funny, can ruin someone else's property and could land you in trouble. Don't do it.

Support for businesses

Retailers - make it clear to your customers that you may refuse to sell them eggs and flour.
