ABCP is moving forward
The Association of Business Crime Partnerships (ABCP) has now been officially created following a joint board meeting between AABC and ATCM on 3rd June. The new name has been registered with Companies House and there will be a new logo and other visual changes as we move forward. The new organisation has the support of ACPO business crime and the Home Office and we hope that with this level of support and a new government keen to support business, that we will be able to increase the relevance of what we do and what we bring to crime prevention and community safety.
Operational members of the new board have met to discuss the future strategy for the new organisation and we will be meeting with other board members, representatives of BCRPs, TCMs, business, ACPO and the Home Office on 15th July to discuss the strategic direction for the organisation.
As part of that strategy we will be inviting BCRPs and TCMs to join ABCP and help give us a strong national voice for partnerships who we can then recognise and support. We will offer support and recognition for our members and ensure that their accredited partnerships are recognised by the police, business members and other organisations, so join us now and help to create a strong and united front for your partnerships.
We will keep you fully informed of how we are progressing and the conclusions we reach through our newsletter. This is an exciting time for ABCP and we look forward to creating a strong and effective voice for BCRPs.
