There will be a high visibility police presence throughout the Island during the festive period, with the aim of maintaining community safety.
Officers from all five neighbourhood policing teams will be out on patrol to make sure people are secure in their homes, at the shops, on the roads and on nights out.
Police are focusing on reducing crime, particularly shoplifting, public disorder and drink driving.
