🕰️ Clocks go back, but don’t let security slip! 🏠

The clocks go back, an extra hour’s delight,
But don’t give burglars the cover of night.
Lock your doors, check your lights,
Secure your home through autumn nights.

Extra hour? Use it wise—
Double-check, don’t compromise! 🔑

Are you, or do you know, a young person aged 13-18 in Sussex?

We want to understand how safe young people feel in their communities and public spaces.

Our anonymous survey is open until mid-December and will help identify what's working well and where improvements can be made.

Last year, nearly 2,000 young people shared their views. This year, we'd love to hear from even more.

🗣️ If you're aged 13-18, or know someone who is, please take part and share the survey. Your voice matters.
