October 2 in London sees BRC Retail Crime and Loss Prevention 2014, the British Retail Consortium’s annual conference. Visit www.retailcrimeconference.com.
Phillip Hagon, Head of Corporate Security at Sainsbury’s, is event chairman. He says: “These are challenging times, with significant threats from the growth of cyber-crime and fraud and, of course, organised crime gangs often operating from outside the jurisdiction of the UK. However, I am more optimistic than ever that law enforcement and security professionals, working collaboratively, can effectively counter this threat and make the UK an increasingly hostile environment for criminal behaviour. There are many calls upon our time, but I really believe that attending this conference and learning about what active involvement in the partnership against crime actually means – what you can contribute to making the UK a safer place to live and do business – will be an extremely worthwhile use of that valuable time.”
