Here is yet another example of the rural crime that is going on around us on a daily basis.
The impact on both the farming business and the families involved could potentially be huge. Not only does this have financial implications for those involved, it raises a number of health risks to the wider community.
For those carrying out business in a rural area it is important to understand the risks that rural crime poses to you. In Oxfordshire alone, we are facing rural crime in a number of forms. It is vital that we raise awareness of these crimes and work with the police to prevent them.
Hedges Law will be teaming up the Thames Valley Police to host a Rural Crime Prevention evening on 2nd March. The event will be open to farmers, land owners and anyone else with an interest in prevention of rural crime.
For more information on our event, please contact me by email- alex.crump@hedgeslaw.co.uk
