Officers from Newcastle PSNI Neighbourhood policing team visited a number of householders in Kilcoo to give them advice on home security. They gave out a number of solar lights to residents in areas where no exterior electric lights are provided. Personal attack alarms and home security leaflets were also given to the more vulnerable members of the neighbourhood. If you would like any advice on home security please contact your local Neighbourhood Policing Team on 0845 600 8000.  ]]>
