Crime prevention advice for retail outlets | Dementia-friendly activities for older adults
Crime prevention advice for retail outlets
With a number of retail outlets set to begin opening again across the borough in June, businesses are urged to step up safety checks and take steps to lower the risks of crime.
Many establishments starting to reopen from June 15 will need to change the way they operate and interact with their customers and ensure social distancing can be followed.
The Met Police have warned that criminals will be seeking to exploit the pandemic and could use facemasks to conceal their identity.
Tips include continuing with a ‘meet and greet’ structure to help control numbers in the store, introducing one-way systems and changing where you place your stock. There’s more safety advice on our business pages.
Businesses must have taken the necessary steps to become COVID-19 secure before reopening.
Dementia-friendly activities for older adults
It is understandable that many people will experience some level of stress and anxiety during the coronavirus pandemic. For older adults and those with dementia, it can be even more difficult to manage.
The Health Innovation Network South London (external link) has put together a useful guide of free, dementia-friendly resources for those providing care for older adults and those with dementia - to help support their mental health and wellbeing.
There is a range of activities to choose from, which can be done alone or with the support of a carer according to need. The guide includes exercises, activities that can be done on a tablet, access to online newspapers and magazines, links to film, music and TV, and livestreams of concerts, nature and museums.
