Thousands of items are being handed out in Coventry City Centre to help people shop safer in the lead-up to Christmas.
Coventry Business Improvement District (BID) is hosting a series of crime prevention and safety days in the city centre and has invested in more than 12,000 items to give out to the public.
It is the second year that the BID has carried out the initiative but this year it has invested in additional items to cater for high demand.
Shoppers can access a free supply of more than 7,000 purse dipping bells, 4,500 credit card defenders, 1,000 purse cables and 1,000 secure shopping bags.
Events are taking place in the city centre to hand out the items and the first day saw thousands of items handed out.
The next event for shoppers to obtain the free safety items will be held by the foundation near Lower Precinct on Thursday, December 5 from 10am to 2pm.
The BID is also providing shoppers with advice and guidance on how to stay safe while Christmas shopping.
