Police are appealing for information following three burglaries in West End and Hedge End over the last five days.

Romill Close, Torridge Gardens and Billington Gardens were all subject to disturbances between Christmas Eve and December 27.

Police have reminded residents about crime prevention tips before the New Year period.

The advice includes ensuring side gates and fences are secure, not to leave ladders and tools in the garden and asking a trusted neighbour to keep an eye on your property.
