The second of two initial meetings will see Ms Mountstevens introduce her vision and objectives and give business leaders the chance to share their thoughts and ideas.

Ms Mountstevens, who is a former director of Mountstevens bakeries, said: “In my experience, businesses have a real desire to engage with the police and I feel that a Business Crime Forum, which will be at a very strategic level covering the whole of Avon and Somerset, would be the platform for this.

“In having a Business Crime Forum, I want to engage with retailers and businesses because they are key to our economy and a really important voice which I do not think has been listened to before.”

The meeting will be from 6pm to 7pm at Leigh Court, Abbots Leigh.
