How to get involved

By supporting these schemes retailers can help tackle the underlying causes of crime and violence in their stores 

These schemes are examples of effective partnerships between retailers, the police and charities and of what can be achieved when these organisations come together to address the problem, helping individuals and keeping communities safe. 

The map below shows lots of other examples right across the UK of what can be done and where retailers, government, and policing are supporting community efforts to tackle the problem of substance abuse. 

You can reach out to your Police Crime and Commissioners office (PCC) for further information on how to get involved with local programmes. Please refer to the contact information provided in the map.
