Secure Business Premises

Safe and secure has always been a key theme. As part of the BID we:

• Work closely with local PCSOs and Cheshire Police.  
• Work with landlords, installed security gates and security fencing to seal off vulnerable areas and prevent unauthorised vehicular access at night.
• Improve visibility through the removal/thinning of hedges and shrubs, to help open up some of the more secluded areas of the estate and tackle the areas where the landscape is a cause for concern.
• Provide crime prevention signage to ensure that security measures are highly visible across both Estates.
• Provide general security measures across the estate and to all businesses; regular and fully documented mobile security patrols throughout the night, a 24/7 alarm response service; alarm diallers that ring through directly to the security company; key holding service.
• Continued investment in the automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system. Every vehicle entering and leaving the estate is accurately monitored 24/7 and all registration numbers or partial numbers can be identified together with timings and recurrence of visits.

SeletcaDNA forensic marking kits

‘SelectaMark DNA’ forensic property marking kits are freely available to BID Businesses to protect IT equipment, portable machinery and other high value small items.

Warning signage and window stickers are also available and these alone are a proven deterrent to thieves.

To support cyclists, the BID offers free Bike Security Marking Kits.  These kits contain a highly durable tamper resistant QR Code label.  The QR Code Label gives your bike a unique BikeRegister ID to enable you to register your bike, so that it’s traceable back to you should it be stolen or lost. 

If this is something you would be interested in please email BID@haltonchamber.co.uk to request your kit. 

Every year 30,000 people suffer a cardiac arrest outside hospital. Prompt use of
an AED (within 3–5 minutes of collapse) combined with chest compressions can
lead to survival rates of 50 to 75 per cent.

The BID has installed a number of internal and external defibrillators for the shared use of businesses across both estates. Free training is provided together with signage for host businesses.

Defibrillator Locations on both Astmoor & Halebank.
