Students make easy targets for burglars. Not only are they known for being easy going when it comes to security, they are recognised as worthwhile targets. The bounty from breaking and entering a student’s property is often well worth all the risk with valuables like laptops, phones and I-Pods up for grabs!
According to the article “No place like home – a sensible student’s guide!” students enjoying independence for the first time are often unaware of the consequences of leaving doors unlocked until it is too late!
It is an exciting time for new students being away from home for the first time! Life can be trying at times but you don’t always have to learn life’s lessons the hard way! Make sure those windows and doors are locked at all times especially when you are not occupying the property and get some good home contents insurance for those ‘just in case’ situations!
