We know Croydon BID genuinely has the interests of businesses at heart, not just in what they say publicly, but in the conversations they have behind the scenes. The challenges we face around shoplifting and antisocial behaviour aren’t abstract; they affect staff and customers every day. What makes the difference is having a voice that carries those realities into the right rooms. Through Croydon BID, we’ve had the opportunity to speak directly with senior decision-makers, including the Minister for Policing and the Metropolitan Police Deputy Commissioner, and that influence and access to present our concerns adds value and really matters.
