This week is Safer Business Action Week (SABA), a national initiative bringing together policing, businesses and partners to tackle crime affecting retailers and organisations, while helping create safer places to work, shop and visit.
As part of that commitment in Derbyshire, Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts, Mayor of the East Midlands, Claire Ward and Acting Chief Constable Simon Blatchly OBE recently joined business leaders, retailers and partners from across the county at Casa Hotel, Chesterfield, to discuss the challenges facing organisations today and the practical support available to help them stay safe.
🤝 During the event, a new free countywide Business Crime Partnership was launched, giving businesses of all sizes access to crime prevention advice, information-sharing opportunities and direct engagement with policing and partner agencies.
A dedicated panel session also gave business owners and retailers the opportunity to ask questions about retail crime, business crime and fraud, discuss the local picture in Derbyshire, and explore some of the wider factors contributing to offending.
📢 By removing barriers to participation and encouraging greater collaboration between businesses, policing and partners, the new partnership aims to strengthen resilience, improve intelligence sharing and help prevent crime before it happens.
✅ The event reflected the aims of Safer Business Action Week, highlighting how partnership working can help protect staff, customers and businesses while supporting safer, stronger communities.

🚫🏘️ Anti-social behaviour can have a lasting impact on victims, families and communities.
The Crime and Policing Act 2026 has introduced new measures to strengthen the response to anti-social behaviour, including Respect Orders for persistent offenders and enhanced arrangements to help ensure victims' concerns are properly considered.
📢 The legislation also gives Local Policing Bodies, including the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner, a greater role in raising awareness of the ASB Case Review process and providing an additional route for reviewing decisions where victims remain dissatisfied.
🗣️ PCC Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts is committed to ensuring victims of anti-social behaviour know their rights, can access support, and are confident their voices will be heard.

Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts has announced the expansion of SmartWater protection, making this support available to victims across all risk levels in Derbyshire.
Initially introduced to support victims of domestic abuse and stalking, SmartWater has helped victims feel safer in their homes while providing valuable forensic evidence to support investigations and identify offenders. When sprayed from up to 10 metres away, it can provide a unique and traceable mark on clothing and skin for weeks.
The results have been encouraging, with more than eight in ten victims reporting they felt safer, while almost three-quarters experienced no further contact from their perpetrator after receiving protection. 📉
By expanding the scheme to cover the whole county, Nicolle is continuing to invest in measures that help prevent harm, protect vulnerable people and support victims to rebuild their confidence and feel safe. 🤝
Together, we are sending a clear message: victims will be supported, offenders will be held to account, and there is no place for domestic abuse or stalking in Derbyshire.
