Business Crime Reduction Partnerships: Working together to create safer places to live, work and shop

City, University of London and the National Business Crime Centre (NBCC) are delighted to co-host a one-day event focusing on crime reduction partnerships. The agenda brings together BCRPs, the police, businesses, BIDs and policy makers to share best practice in tackling crime and antisocial behaviour.

The agenda includes insights from the Lead of the APCC Portfolio Group on Business Crime, case studies from partnerships that have implemented effective and innovative practices, and an overview of the recently revised accreditation process. You can also hear valuable overviews on Information Sharing Agreements (ISAs), updates on new and existent legislation that is central to BCRPs everyday work, and in-depth discussion on recurrent concerns such as anti-social behaviour (ASB). The workshop will be followed by a networking drinks reception.

The registration form is password protected as priority is being given to an invited audience. If you’d like to register and haven’t received an invite, please email events@city.ac.uk and we'll be in touch.
