As associate members of the National Rural Crime Network, we reinforced our commitment to tackling rural crime by sharing our intelligence-led approach to protecting farms and rural communities. Rural SafeGuard showcased practical, unobtrusive security solutions designed to safeguard livelihoods while supporting the everyday realities of rural life.
Rural SafeGuard had a brilliant time connecting with the community and demonstrating how its new layered, intelligence-led security solutions are supporting the protection of farms, homes, and rural businesses across the UK.
The Rural SafeGuard™ team spent the day connecting with farmers, landowners and rural professionals, listening to real stories about the challenges they face every day. From fly-tipping to machinery theft, we heard it all. We shared our own on-the-ground insights too, exploring how an intelligence-led approach can help protect what matters most. At its heart, the day was about connection, understanding and standing shoulder to shoulder with the rural community against crime.
The Rural SafeGuard™ team spent two days delivering insights, leading farm walks, showcasing live demonstrations, and engaging in meaningful conversations on rural crime prevention. Throughout the event, the team shared decades of expertise built over 40 years of safeguarding work across multiple industrial sectors, offering practical guidance and proven strategies to help reduce rural crime.
At the Newark Showground, the team shared simple and practical guidance on protecting farms, covering everything from equipment and property to the wider livelihood. They provided real world advice, demonstrated effective solutions and supported farmers with strategies to reduce rural crime.
