We’ve recently introduced a ‘My Local Bobby’ scheme at The Junction BID and employed two wardens who work directly with BID businesses to tackle anti-social behaviour and shoplifting (amongst other projects) and work on the ground to offer friendly help and guidance to residents and visitors when shopping in The Junction.
Each Bobby is trained and equipped to deal with:
- Street crime – robbery and theft of person offences
- Retail crime – theft shoplifting
- Drug dealing
- Illegal street traders
- Begging
- Busking and street performers
- Anti-Social Behaviour
- Rough sleepers
Integrating into the community and building familiarity and trust is a priority for each of our Bobbies, to ensure they provide full support to our BID businesses.
