Westerham and Crockham Hill police have three concerns, and two involve vehicles: nuisance driving and vehicle crime. Add nuisance behaviour, and local businesses need car parks and frontages watched carefully.

Westerham Business Profile
Westerham work is crewed from our Kent officers. Each holds an SIA licence, was screened to BS 7858 and is paid via PAYE. Officers check in by GPS at every site, and a control desk that never shuts sees each patrol and alarm attendance, then sends the client a digital record as soon as the job is done.
Sevenoaks district has around 6,735 registered businesses. Builders lead at 1,285, which is 19.1% of firms where Britain has 14.1%, so plant at depots and yards often needs protecting. Business services, at 10.2% against 8.0%, are another strength, and such offices usually want a keyholder, alarm attendance and the odd patrol rather than full-time guarding.
The Fleapit Cinema Club at Westerham Hall is the main named venue nearby. Any event there drawing 200 or more will have to meet Martyn's Law once it takes effect in 2027, and our stewards can handle entry checks. What Martyn's Law means for venues.

Security Requirements in Westerham
Westerham's 5km radius holds few large commercial sites: the UK Power Networks Training and Development Centre and Redland are the named business locations, and Hurst Green is the nearest station. No shopping centres or hospitals fall in range, and the construction map is empty.
With 16 pubs and bars and police attention fixed on vehicles, the main security concerns are car parks, shop and pub frontages, and premises left unattended overnight, especially where vans or customer cars are parked outside.
