Neighbourhood Policing Team Weekly Update

                                                      Boscombe & Christchurch Neighbourhood Policing Team

Hello everyone

Here's a quick look at some of the work we've been doing to keep our community safe and connected

This week, Dorset Police and partners have been taking part in the national Safer Business Action Week to help tackle business and retail crime across local communities.

As part of the initiative, police and partners have been running Safer Business Action Days throughout the week, visiting local retailers and other businesses to gain a better understanding of the challenges they face daily.

For the first time, four national campaigns have joined together for SaBA Week, with the NBCC, Association of Convenience Stores (ACS), Usdaw and Retail Trust working together to strengthen efforts to protect retail workers from violence, abuse and intimidation.

The aim was to deliver a focused operation involving joint patrols, targeted action against prolific offenders and a range of crime prevention activities, supported by the National Business Crime Centre, which coordinates SaBA Week.

By aligning these campaigns with Safer Business Action Week, the NBCC and its partners will connect public awareness and behaviour change with practical crime prevention, reporting, intelligence, partnership working, and enforcement

The outcomes we have seen from these joint efforts demonstrate the positive impact of police, local authorities and the business community working together to reduce harm and make places safer for people to work and shop.
