BID Member Benefits

business crime reduction partnership (bcrp)

The Burnley Business Crime Reduction Partnership (BCRP) is a partnership between the Burnley business community, Burnley Borough Council and Lancashire Police. The BCRP helps to create a safe environment for businesses, their employees, clients, customers and visitors.

Burnley BID Wardens patrol the Burnley BID area, acting as a visible presence to deter anti-social behaviour and provide reassurance to businesses, organisations, shoppers, and visitors.

Access to a new secure ultra-high frequency security radio network, linked to the local CCTV control room. For more information this simply click BRCP.

The BID provides secure access to an online portal that shares data and information on repeat offenders, named ‘Disc’ which is GDPR compliant. Disc empowers communities to share information about incidents and offenders, as well as current awareness about safety and security matters, so businesses can better protect themselves and their property, staff and customers.
