Our first two security training sessions took place on 28 July, attended by 35 people from eight different companies in the area.

The course was designed following feedback from BID member companies and focused on managing customer behaviour, staff personal safety and detecting fraud. The course, aimed at retail and hospitality staff, also attracted head office staff based in the BID area with retail outlets in the West End.

The next course will take place in September, email safer@marble-arch.london to register your interest.
