Crime Prevention Advice
Whilst at the event, it’s important to remember the usual crime prevention measures that you would use if you were in a city centre. Make sure you don’t leave any valuables on display and ensure that your car is left locked at all times. It’s easy to have a carefree attitude at this type of occasion but remember to take the same precautions you would on any other night out. Should you wish to report a crime, contact Police on 0845 6060606 or in an emergency call 999.
