West Yorkshire Police is teaming up with retailers in Shipley to thwart shoplifters.

Businesses are invited to join the Shipley Business Watch Radio Scheme to put staff in direct contact with other local traders and the police.

Potential criminals can be identified and the information shared by radio, so staff can be on the lookout for suspicious individuals and police soon alerted to problems.

The scheme, which is supported by Bradford Council, costs £5 to join. For more information call (01480) 812272 or e-mail iain.ross@sitelink.co.uk.
