First signed in 2006, this relationship has included ‘Most Wanted’ campaigns using CCTV images captured from their 2000-plus stores to identify repeat fraudsters and serial thieves from betting shops.
Barry Phillips, Head of Retail Security for Ladbrokes, said; “Ladbrokes’ partnership with Crimestoppers has proved to be highly effective over the years in cutting crime and improving public safety. It also maintains an important link with our numerous other community initiatives, such as our work with the Safer Neighbourhoods Scheme.”
And Rodger Holden, Director of Business Development for Crimestoppers, said: “Crimestoppers’ partnership with Ladbrokes is one that we are delighted to be renewing. We both strive to help communities by cutting crime and look forward to introducing new initiatives in the coming year.”
