We work to break the cycle of addiction & crime by applying to the courts for criminal behaviour orders against persistent offenders, which ban them from stores they target.
But we can only do this if we have evidence, so please report.

We review every shoplifting arrest and apply to the courts for criminal behaviour orders which ban persistent offenders from the stores they target.
CBOs can also include conditions to attend drug and alcohol treatment assessments.
