Witham Industrial Watch: Home

Has Your Business in Witham Been a Victim of Crime?

If not, congratulations! But I’m afraid it’s only a matter of time.

FACT: In the last year, of the 320 businesses on our industrial estates, 143 offences took place. That's nearly 45% of businesses that were the subject of a crime. This startling statistic is why Industrial Watch was formed. (You’re familiar with Neighbourhood Watch, well we’re the same type of organisiation.) We’re a small but growing group of people who all answer “Yes” to the following questions:

I work on Witham’s estates?
I refuse to be a passive victim of crime?

If you answer “Yes” to these questions too, please get involved in Industrial Watch. Joining us will bring your business substantial benefits:

Crime is Money! Low crime or no crime saves you spending money on replacing & repairing property and increased insurance premiums.
Crime is time consuming! Low crime or no crime means your time is spent on far more important things.
High crime areas attract criminals, not employees. Low crime or no crime means good staff retention.
High crime areas attract criminals but not business investors. Low crime or no crime keeps the buildings around us occupied.
