Everyone is encouraged to come and have trailers and farming equipment marked as well as receive crime prevention advice and guidance from officers.

The proactive measure involves painting a unique ID mark on trailers and other farm equipment in an easily visible area with paint and stencils.

The owner’s details and ID mark are then held on a PSNI database which can then be checked if a trailer is seen in a location at a time that’s unusual. Contact Sheila CPO at Magherafelt PSNI on 101 ext. 40469 or 07795 607167.
