ACPO Rural Crime Seminar 2012

The second annual ACPO Rural Crime Seminar will take place on the 8th November 2012 in Kettering, Northamptonshire. Building on the success of last year’s inaugural rural crime seminar, this year’s event will have a particular emphasis on rural farming crime. 

From plant theft to theft of livestock and metal, the response to these types of offences can only be delivered effectively through a multi- agency approach and meaningful engagement with our rural communities.  This seminar will provide a forum for the sharing of best practice; examine new initiatives and effective ways of tackling rural crime in our communities.  The seminar will also assist in identifying areas for the future prioritisation of available resources.

Those who will benefit from the event include representatives at senior management and practioner level from the following disciplines:       

• Police service
• Neighbourhood Watch
• Environment Agency
• Local authority policy and enforcement
• Manufacturers
• Insurance industry
• Security providers
