Police Service of Northern Ireland officers marked 15 trailers during an event at Craigbane Gaelic Athletic Club. A PSNI spokesperson noted that most participants took advantage of the scheme for the first time.

The free service involves applying a visible identifier to trailers. It aims to discourage theft and assist officers in verifying ownership during recovery efforts. The procedure requires only a few minutes per vehicle.

Organisers reported high demand at the Saturday session, with available appointments filling rapidly. PSNI expressed appreciation to Craigbane GAC for providing the car park venue.

Trailer theft remains a concern in rural areas of Northern Ireland, where such vehicles are common for farming and recreation. The PSNI runs these events regularly to support vehicle owners.
