A Yorkshire crime reduction partnership has become a member of Association of Business Crime Partnerships (ABCP): Harrogate.
Chris Chelton, project manager for Harrogate Borough council said: ‘We were aware of the growing number of partnerships surrounding us and we felt there was a need to respond and ensure we were able to provide a business crime reduction service for Harrogate, Ripon and Knaresborough.
‘Our co-ordinator, Patrick Byrne, comes from a business background and will be working hard to expand our partnership and radio services to members in the three towns and to grow the partnership over the next year.’
