Screwfix, Homebase and B&Q are joined by a host of other high profile retail brands, including Amazon, Maplin, Timpson, Costco and Robert Dyas, helping to raise awareness of the importance of home security.
With statistics showing an increase in burglaries during the autumn and winter months the campaign coincides with a peak selling time for sales of security products, as consumers seek to protect their homes and belongings before the darker nights set in.
Throughout October the initiative focuses on a number of different aspects of home security, including doors and windows, protecting valuables and outdoor security. It concludes with a look at some of the latest gadgets on the market designed to safeguard homes, families and possessions from the risk of crime.
David Herbert, Head of Marketing for lead sponsor Yale, comments: "This year's National Home Security Month is off to a great start. Many of our major customers, including national brands and independent retailers, are playing an active role in the campaign and we're looking forward to working with them over the coming weeks as we help to help keep the nation's homes and families safe and secure."
