As we approaching the wonderful time of the year, we at Securitas
Ireland, encourage you to focus on safety during this winter season.
Winter can be a wonderful time of the year. Many parts of the country are blanketed with
dazzling white snow. Fans of winter sports can take advantage of an abundance of ice
skating and sledding, while children can immerse themselves in the joy of building
snowmen and snow forts for spectacular snowball fights! Yes, winter can be a joyous time,
so long as you can retreat from the cold to the warmth inside your home.
Unfortinately, winter is also time when snow and ice storms play havoc with the power lines
and leave many homes and businesses without heat and light. Winter storms can bring
cities to a halt, snarling roadways, closing airports and disrupting services. Bitter cold,
driving winds and snow have hit nearly every region of the country last year. Severe winter
weather is more than just inconvenient; it can be dangerous, especially when driving.
In this edition of Stay Ahead with Securitas Ireland digital magazine you will find out some
tips to help you safeguard against Winter Storms.
