Membership Benefits
Lincolnshire Chamber Business Watch Scheme is a county-wide initiative in which businesses can join a local business watch group in their area.
Each local scheme brings businesses together for the common purpose of reducing retail crime and works with business owners to share real-time information about crimes and disruptive behaviour.
Get in touchBusiness Watch operates on a membership basis and each area has its own Business, Pub and Shop Watch group made up from members of the local business community, the local authority and the Police.
Connectivity of a Business Watch is via top of the range digital radio handsets that link and are monitored by the local CCTV commands. Member meetings support engagement with business members and afford opportunity for best practice and information sharing.
