Halloween is all about spooky fun, dressing up and collecting treats. But for some older people living alone, unexpected knocks at the door after dark can be more frightening than fun.

If you're out trick-or-treating this Halloween, here are a few little things to remember:

🕸️ Be mindful of older neighbours who might find unexpected visitors unsettling.

🍬 Keep the tricks friendly and remember that not everyone wants to join in.

🏡 If someone doesn't answer the door, please respect their privacy and move on.

✨ A friendly smile, a little consideration and a kind word can make all the difference.

Let's make Halloween fun for everyone, with plenty of treats and a little less fright! 🎃
