Police commissioner invites Swindon businesses to share crime experiences

Wiltshire’s police commissioner Angus Macpherson was at Swindon Chamber of Commerce this morning (Friday) to identify the type of crimes suffered by the Swindon business community, and the effect crime as on business in the town.

Mr Macpherson told networkers that they – and other Swindon businesses – could share their experiences of crime and policing by taking part in an online survey.

But respondents have to be quick: the survey – which can be found at www.wiltshire-pcc.gov.uk/Feedback/Business-Crime-Survey.aspx – closes at midnight on Sunday (July 14).

The findings of the survey will be presented at a free half-day business crime forum, hosted by the commissioner, from 9.30am to 12.30pm on Friday, September 6 at the Corn Exchange, Devizes.

The forum will also provide an opportunity for delegates to hear how they may prevent their business from becoming victim to a wide range of fraud.
