Keeping Looe Safe: Town Security Returns for Summer 2025
Looe Business Forum and Looe Town Council are pleased to welcome back Poseidon Town Security from Saturday 26th July to Tuesday 2nd September. Please look out for them patrolling around town.
Our aim – supporting the safety of local businesses, residents and visitors through visible deterrent, helpful advice and preventative conversation.
Businesses throughout the town have been supplied with a network of radios to provide effective communications and an early warning mechanism to reduce shoplifting and report anti-social behaviour to Town Security.

Many of our local business owners felt that the trial of 2024 was an all-round success. Town Security reports to the local policing team secured 20 extra hours of PCSO presence in the town last August. Looe Town Council agreed to match-fund donations received from local business owners, to provide the finance for this important service again this year.
Jamie Pearn, Chair of Looe Business Forum said: “I am grateful for the support businesses, individuals, and Looe Town Council have shown for this initiative. It is reassuring to know that some of the pressure caused by shoplifting and anti-social behaviour will be eased during the summer – our busiest time of year. This would not have been possible without the business community coming together to make it happen.”
Looe Business Forum and Looe Town Council would like to take this opportunity to wish all our local businesses a safe and prosperous summer season. Let’s hope the sun shines!
