Be Bright & Be Seen!

Tue 20 Oct 2015

1) Brightly coloured or fluorescent clothing shows up well in daylight and at dusk when you're heading to and from school.

2) If you're out and about when it's dark, wear reflective gear to make sure that you can be seen in car headlights. Reflective vests, sashes or wristbands work well. Remember, fluorescent clothing doesn't work after dark!

3) Don't forget to accessorise! Even small items such as clip-on reflectors, armbands and stickers on your outfit or school bag are a great way to improve your visibility.

4) If you like to cycle, remember that it's the law to have clean and working lights at night (white at the front, red at the back), as well as a rear reflector. It's good to fit spoke reflectors too.

5) Of course, 'Being Bright' isn't the only way to stay safer. If you're out at night, choose routes an crossing places that are well lit and remember to always use the Green Cross Code.

A Holloween Message fom Rochford District Council

Tue 20 Oct 2015

Halloween falls again in half-term this year and Rochford District Council have teamed-up with Essex Police to bring you these top-tips for staying safe.

1) Stay in areas that are lit with streetlights - take a torch with you just in case.

2) Although Halloween is supposed to be spooky, be careful not to frighten elderly people.

3) Only go to houses where you or your friends know the residents.

4) Always go 'trick or treating' with an adult.

5) Be visible.

6) Don't enter any house - stay on the doorstep.

7) Throwing eggs and flour is anti-social behaviour and will get you into trouble.

8) Stay with your friends. Don't split into smaller groups unless an adult goes with you.

9) Don't know on doors where there is a sign saying, 'no trick or treat here'.

10) Don't talk to strangers on the street.
