Only trick or treat in your own neighbourhood unless you're with an adult
Stay in well-lit areas where there are plenty of houses
Make sure an adult knows the area you plan to visit and what time you'll be back
Look out for 'no callers please' posters and respect your neighbours
Keep to pavements and trick or treat on one side of the street before crossing safely to the other side - don't criss-cross
Don'ts
Don't cut through back alleys, parks or fields, and don't trick or treat too far from home
Don't go alone - take an adult with you or stay in a group
Wait to eat any treats until you get home so that an adult can check them
