Each patrol is confirmed with a GPS book-on, and reports go to our 24/7 control room, where alarms and CCTV are also watched. That means a manager at Eastfield or Westwood Park gets a timed record of every visit rather than a promise that someone looked in. Construction, with 1,395 firms, professional services on 1,135 and hospitality on 795 are Fife's three largest sectors. Agriculture stands at 7.0% of businesses against 4.5% across Britain, which points to rural mobile patrols and solar CCTV towers for farms and outbuildings.

Because Police.uk covers England, Wales and Northern Ireland only, we cannot display the same one-mile crime breakdown here. That does not leave a business without a clear picture. Our free on-site security audit, worth £250, looks at access points, lighting, alarms and how your premises is used, and our 25-point security risk checklist turns that into a practical list of priorities.
