Win a Spectacular Prize for your Family this Halloween
Calling all young Witches, Wizards and Muggles!
Young people can make this Halloween a fang-tastic one by entering an online quiz for the chance to win a magical prize for the whole family.
Hertfordshire Constabulary has teamed up with Warner Bros to give one lucky winner a family ticket to The Making of Harry Potter in Leavesden.
This Halloween and Bonfire period, young people in Hertfordshire, between the ages of five and 16, are invited to take part in the online quiz. Whether you’re a courageous Gryffindor or a loyal Hufflepuff – help to make sure everyone can celebrate responsibly.
The quiz is part of a campaign run during October and November, in partnership with local councils and the Fire and Rescue Service, to deter anti-social behaviour and make sure everyone has a safe and enjoyable time.
If children (and parents) are planning to go trick or treating, police ask that you consider the following advice to help you stay safe and not cause distress to others:
- Never go trick or treating alone and always take an adult with you.
- Don’t knock on the doors of strangers.
- Only visit houses where there are signs that trick or treaters are welcome, such as Halloween decorations and pumpkins outside.
- Keep your Halloween ‘tricks’ safe – damage to property or hurting someone is a crime. Threatening and abusive behaviour can amount to an offence too.
- Remember road safety rules, particularly after dark.
- Wear something bright so that drivers can see you.
- If you are planning on hosting your own firework party make sure you tell all your neighbours, especially those with pets which may be affected by the noise.
