PCSO Mark Ball, PCSO Janet Rumley and PCSO Sarah Wallace in Folkestone town centre

They will be giving away Kent Police purse clips and Safer Winter information leaflets and will also be asking people to complete questionnaires about their neighbourhoods to see if they have any concerns about crime and anti-social behaviour.

They will also be offering free security marking to anybody who brings their valuables like bikes, mobile phones, sat navs, MP3 players, cameras, and so on.

Having valuables security-marked is helpful as it acts as a deterrent and makes it easier for police to identify the rightful owners if property is lost or stolen.

They will be at the following locations

Monday 15th December: 10 am to 4 pm, Cheriton

Wednesday 17th December: 2.30 pm to 6 pm, Folkestone town centre

Friday 19th December:2 pm to 6 pm, Lidl at Hawkinge

Saturday 20th December: 10 am to 4 pm, Folkestone town centre.

PCSO Janet Rumley who has co-ordinated the roadshows said: "We're looking forward to meeting people out and about to promote the Safer Winter campaign. Anyone is welcome to bring an item to be security marked absolutely free."
