Businesses across Derbyshire are being invited to the attend one of a series of free Tackling Business Crime Together s offering expert insight, networking opportunities and discussion around some of the key challenges impacting businesses today.

At the relaunch of Derbyshire Victim Services, delivered by Remedi: Restorative Services, Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Dr. Fatima Eltinay joined partners, support organisations and victims to reflect on the importance of support, recovery and resilience following crime.
Fatima was invited to deliver a heartfelt speech on the vital role victim services play in helping people cope, recover and rebuild their lives. She spoke about the OPCC's commitment to ensuring victims remain at the heart of the criminal justice system, the importance of accessible support, and the need to raise awareness of the services available to those affected by crime.
Throughout the event, attendees heard moving accounts from victims of stalking, assault, intimidation and fraud, who spoke candidly about the impact crime had on their wellbeing, confidence and daily lives.
Their stories were a powerful reminder that the effects of crime can last long after an incident has ended, but also of the difference that specialist support can make. Speakers reflected on how support from victim services and Derbyshire Police helped them navigate some of the most difficult periods in their lives and begin their recovery journeys.
Particularly impactful was the testimony of a fraud victim, who shared his experience of rebuilding his confidence after being targeted and the challenges he faced in the years that followed.
The event also highlighted the work of Remedi and Derbyshire Victim Services, including the Community Point Programme, which aims to make information and support more accessible through trusted locations within local communities, and the promotion of discreet victim support cards to help people access assistance safely and confidentially.
Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences. Their courage not only helps others feel less alone but also continues to shape and improve the support available to victims across Derbyshire.

More than 1,000 e-scooters have been taken off the streets of Derbyshire since a zero-tolerance crackdown launched to address public concerns.
Derbyshire Police has been trailblazing a robust ‘seize and dispose’ policy since 1st November 2024 to tackle the growing menace of illegal and dangerously ridden e-scooters on the county’s roads and in public spaces.
The fast-track measure, supported by Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts, has now seen more than 1,000 e-scooters immediately seized and removed from the roads. This tough approach has put Derbyshire ahead of the curve in dealing with reckless or anti-social driving of the vehicles.
The government has now introduced national measures allowing police to crush or dispose of seized anti-social vehicles much faster than the previous 14-day rule.
It is illegal to ride a privately owned e-scooter on a public road, pavement or public space in the UK because they cannot be legally insured.
Those who flout the law can face prosecution through the courts as well as the seizure and immediate destruction of their e-scooter.
Anyone who causes serious harm to another person while riding an e-scooter will be prosecuted in the same way as if they were riding a motorcycle or driving a car.
