CBCP Watch Groups

Our monthly Intelligence Meetings offer businesses the opportunity to report on incidents, discuss known offenders, understand crime trends and to deal pro-actively with issues such as stock loss and anti-social behaviour. Working with Croydon Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), Croydon BID and Croydon Council, members attending have the opportunity to learn at first hand some of the key issues affecting the town as well as to take an active role in reducing crime levels.

PubWatch members meet every six weeks with the Croydon Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), Croydon Council Licencing officers, Croydon BID and other partners to share information and intelligence on known offenders and issues affecting the town's night time economy. Members look to pro-actively engage with partners to improve safety and security in the town and ensure it is regarded as a safe and comfortable place to be by all those who use it.

PubWatch also operates a town centre exclusion scheme which is designed to deal head-on with persistent and serious offenders by banning them from the town centre for a 12 months' period.Since the scheme was first launched in September 2014, a total of 14 offenders have been banned from the town.  

Members meet quarterly to share information and intelligence on known offenders and issues affecting betting shops in the town centre, working collaboratively to prevent crime and disorder and ensure that Croydon is regarded as a safe and comfortable place to be, by all those who use it. 

BettingWatch also operates a town centre exclusion scheme which is designed to deter and tackle repeat offending head-on by banning prolific offenders from the town for a 12 months' period.
