Remember, remember the 5th of November, The Gunpowder, Treason and Plot. As many of you will know, this is the start of a nursery rhyme that was written to commemorate the failed gun powder plot of 1605 when Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament. So, as we approach this date we ready ourselves for a night of bonfires, the night sky lit up with fireworks and the inevitable loud bangs that drive most dogs crazy. For most, Bonfire Night will pass with no trouble at all as councils and community groups organise special events to help celebrate this custom with safety as the main priority.

The dark side of Bonfire Night is that ceratin individuals/groups use this time of the year to terrorise neighbourhoods. In England they call it ‘Mischievous Night‘ where youths have been known to set fireworks off down local streets, place ‘bangers’ through people’s letterboxes even attacking other teenagers, pets and local business all in the name of ‘fun’.

Ask any home or local business owner, who has been the victim of a firework prank, just how much damage a ‘banger’ or ‘rocket’ can cause to premises.

Crime Prevention Products are committed to protecting local residents and businesses that’s why we can supply some of the markets best Anti Arson Letterboxes, which will ensure that if anything flammable is placed though your door, that’s as far as it gets. Our Anti Arson Letterboxes have been tested at the Warrington Fire Research Establishment to determine performance.

When it comes to protecting our kids, we try to give them all the worldly advice and wisdom that we have accumulated throughout the years, however, like most parental discussions, it often goes in one ear and out the other. In just a few weeks time, thousands of our nation’s children will be leaving the family home for the first time and heading off to University and College campuses.

Without doubt, this is a time for mixed emotions and excited nervousness as parents up and down the land, watch their children take their first steps towards adulthood and learning the basic tools required for future career opportunities.

On the flip side, Universities and Colleges are renowned for their party nights, social evenings and late night study classes. Which can often have most parents worrying that their children are taking care of themselves.

“Study Nights” can quickly descend into “a late night students party” – no surprise there then – and we all know, that cooking when drunk is never a good recipe (half of accidental house fires are caused by cooking), nor is smoking in small, confined quarters. Here at Crime Protection Products, we have a range of fire safety products that will help alert your child should a fire accidentally break out.
