Security & policing
London First galvanises business, government and the police services to work closer together to increase London’s resilience in the event of a major incident and improve safety from crime for businesses and their employees
In London, crime costs business an estimated £1.4 billion per year. Also, the threat to the UK from terrorism remains regrettably high, with businesses continuing to be targeted across the world.
London First’s objective is to safeguard the capital’s global competitiveness, supporting the police in their aim to make London the safest city in the world
We seek to build a relationship between business, the police and security services which recognises each others’ strengths, needs and responsibilities
