Working together with businesses, the Metropolitan Police Service, British Transport Police, Croydon Council, the Safer Croydon Partnership and other key agencies, the CBCP is at the forefront of a range of business crime reduction initiatives in the town centre that are aimed at deterring and stamping out crime, targeting prolific offenders and improving feelings of safety.  

• With a growing and active membership of 250 businesses, CBCP’s success can be attributed to effective communication channels and regular intelligence-sharing between members, police, and other agencies.
• Our Intelligence Meetings offer businesses the opportunity to report on incidents, discuss known offenders, understand crime trends, and deal proactively with issues such as stock loss and anti-social behaviour.
• As a CBCP member, you have the opportunity to learn first-hand about some of the key issues affecting the town and take an active role in reducing crime levels.
• Our secure and dedicated website serves as a vital tool for distributing information quickly and simply across the town centre to business members, providing them with up-to-date information on known offenders, the latest scams, and specific offenses.
• Through our BusinessWatch, PubWatch, and BettingWatch schemes, CBCP also operates three exclusion schemes, enabling banning orders to be issued against persistent offenders, such as shoplifters and those behaving inappropriately in the town centre.
• Businesses can also benefit from bespoke crime prevention training seminars  in conjunction with the Police, to provide employees with the information, advice, and guidance they need to help prevent crime in the workplace.
