The Charter is significant because it binds together for the first time all the key actors into a framework for action.
Highlights include:
- Securing places where cash is delivered – this includes removing overgrown bushes, improving street lighting, installing CCTV and removing obstacles and unnecessary street furniture
- Putting safer cash delivery at the heart of urban design and planning – a safe cash delivery area is required in all new build shops
- Producing and sharing best practice
- An annual report of progress against the Charter’s aims – the first will be published in 12 months time
