As part of Safer Business Action Week, Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts joined a roundtable at the Joint Training Centre in Ripley, which brought together police, retail partners, and the Business Crime Reduction Partnership to tackle retail crime. 🔒👮
A big thank you to our fantastic guest speakers who joined us to share their expertise and insights on tackling business crime and supporting safer communities.
We were delighted to hear from Stephanie Coombes, Head of Intelligence at Opal, ACC Michelle Shooter at Derbyshire Constabulary, Steve Lang, CEO of Littoralis, Daniel Handley-Farrell, Derbyshire’s lead for business crime and all our colleagues at the Business Crime Reduction Partnership. 👏
🛠️ It was an opportunity to listen to the challenges businesses are facing and to promote the Retail Crime Prevention Toolkit.
📹 A key message that was highlighted at the roundtable was to encourage retailers to have good quality CCTV in place and reporting all offences of retail crime makes a real difference in identifying offenders and securing prosecutions.
📈 Thanks to the work of the dedicated retail crime team in Derbyshire, detection rates have increased from 12% to 33% — a positive step forward in protecting local businesses.
🤝 Working together, we’re making Derbyshire’s retail spaces safer for businesses, staff and customers.
