Cllr Duffy said: “I have been contacted by a number of residents expressing concern regarding individuals attempting to gain access to homes and the attempted theft of cars.
“I cannot advise strongly enough the need for residents to ensure,that all doors and windows are before leaving your home.
“Car keys should also be kept out of sight from prying eyes.
“For those who are unaware of its availability and would like to have a home safety check carried out this can easily be arranged through the local Teamworks service based in Shantallow.
“If you contact the Sinn Féin Constituency Office on 71 359747 we will be happy to give you whatever assistance you may require,” she added.
