Trick Or Treat Advice From North Yorkshire Police

Police say not everyone welcomes trick or treaters to their homes on Halloween so you can download and print a poster to make this clear to anyone trick or treating.  

In a statement, North Yorkshire Police said, ahead of Friday:

'If you don't have access to a printer, you can also visit your local police station, and our team will be happy to print a poster for you.  

'We'll have high-visibility patrols in place in across the area and officers will move on anyone causing anti-social behaviour or intimidating members of the public. 

'Whilst it is usually just a small minority of people who spoil celebrations with pranks that cause criminal damage or intimidation, incidents of anti-social behaviour won’t be tolerated. 

'We’re also expecting an increase in demand on our phone lines, and we would ask you to help us and only call 999 in a genuine emergency. 

'If you would like to discourage trick-or-treaters from coming to your home, or the home of a loved one or vulnerable neighbour, you can download and print the poster below to display in your windows or front door.'

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
