Your Safety & Security
At Radius, the safety and security of you and your neighbours are paramount. Health and safety is a key part of our daily housing management.
While our schemes have built-in security features, your active role is crucial for overall safety within your home and the wider scheme. Taking simple, sensible precautions can significantly enhance your home’s security and safety.
Home Security
- Never leave your home unlocked, even for a moment, or leave keys in your front door.
- Never let anyone into your home unless you know who they are. Always ask for identification. Radius staff or those acting on our behalf will gladly show ID. If you have any doubt, pull your emergency cord.
- When you go out, close all windows and lock both front and back doors.
- Don’t leave carpets or linoleum turned up at the edges (to prevent trips).
- Immediately report any faulty equipment or problems to your Assets Officer.
- If you have a door entry system, this enables you to identify visitors prior to permitting or refusing entry.
NEVER permit entry to strangers into the scheme or your home. Before letting anyone into your home, ask yourself:
- Can you see them?
- Do you know them?
- Do you know why they are calling?
- Have they an appointment to see you?
- Have you asked for their ID?
