Why students?
Most students have technology at their fingertips and carry portable, expensive items such as mobile phones, iPads, tablets and laptops. Student houses can also be full of electrical goods that are attractive to thieves, and you may be lucky enough to own a bike or a car.  If you are a student, we’d encourage you to down the Student Safezone App. More information can be found www.safezoneapp.com
