SPGC launches campaign for happy and safe Eid Al Adha

Director of Media and Public Relations Brigadier General Arif Hassan bin Hudaib stated, "We are keen in Sharjah Police to organise sustainable awareness campaigns through various electronic platforms, especially during the state's official holidays, to enhance the quality of life."

During the Eid holiday, Bin Hudaib said, "The awareness campaign focuses on the need for parents to be vigilant in monitoring their children during family visits, warning them of the dangers of neglect and leaving children in and out of vehicles, or leaving vehicles without making sure that they are closed, which may cause them to suffocate."

Due to the high temperature and low oxygen levels, it is especially important that drivers observe all traffic regulations to ensure the safety of everyone on the road.
Accidents and injuries caused by youngsters using pyrotechnics during Eid celebrations were a major concern; therefore, he issued a warning to community members of the dangers of using fireworks.

In order to achieve the goals of the campaign and have a safe and happy Eid, the Director of the Media and Public Relations Department at the Sharjah Police urged the community to work together with advice and guidance and cooperate with the police agencies.

Further, the "guard" function on the Sharjah Police website and smart app (www.shjpolice.gov.ae) may be utilised for reporting any inappropriate actions.

As a result of the high temperature and lack of oxygen, in addition to raising awareness of the need for vehicle drivers to adhere to traffic safety controls to maintain the security and safety of all road users.

He warned community members of the dangers of using fireworks among children during the celebration of the Eid holiday and the resulting accidents and injuries.

The Director of Media and Public Relations Department at Sharjah Police called on the community members to work together with advice and guidance and cooperate with the police agencies to achieve the goals of the campaign and celebrate a safe and happy Eid by reporting any emergency incident via the number 999, and to report any negative behaviours through the "guard" service available on the Sharjah Police website and smart application, www.shjpolice.gov.ae.
