The campaign combines clear advice with easy access to tools and resources available through the NHW SA website, supporting householders to improve security without added cost.

At the centre of the campaign is the Home Security Habits Quiz, a short ten-question tool designed to highlight small changes that can make a meaningful difference. In just a few minutes, residents can identify common vulnerabilities, adopt no-cost solutions, and reduce the risk of break-ins. The quiz is available at: www.police.sa.gov.au/nhw/home-security-habits-quiz

NHW SA State Coordinator Kirsty Mudge said the campaign is designed to extend access to reliable crime prevention information across the state, including to areas without established NHW groups.

While face-to-face advice from local volunteers remains highly valued, Ms Mudge noted that statewide campaigns play an important role in ensuring all South Australians can access clear, practical guidance that is easy to understand and implement.

Prevention remains the most effective way to reduce the financial and emotional impact of break-ins.

The campaign focuses on everyday security habits, alongside lesser-known measures that can make a property less attractive to offenders, such as planting thorny shrubs beneath windows to deter access.

To maximise reach, campaign messaging is being delivered through digital advertising, posters in community venues, and letterbox drops across SA.
