Fraud remains one of the most commonly reported crimes in the UK, affecting individuals, businesses, charities and public sector organisations alike. Criminals are continually adapting their tactics, making it essential that organisations work together to identify threats, share information and promote effective prevention measures. Suffolk Against Fraud (SAF) has been established to bring partners together in a coordinated effort to protect people across Suffolk from the financial and emotional impact of fraud.
As a member of the partnership, organisations will benefit from:
- Regular fraud bulletins highlighting current and emerging fraud trends, risks and prevention advice.
- Partnership meetings, providing opportunities to share insights, discuss local issues and collaborate on solutions.
- A coordinated county-wide approach to fraud prevention, ensuring consistent messaging and response across Suffolk.
- Opportunities to network with other organisations and businesses committed to reducing fraud and protecting the public.
- Access to shared intelligence and best practice to help identify emerging threats and strengthen prevention activity within their own organisation.
- The opportunity to play an active role in shaping Suffolk's collective response to fraud and scams.
Membership is about working together, sharing knowledge and supporting one another to better prevent fraud and reduce harm across Suffolk. Whether you represent a business, public sector organisation, charity or community group, joining SAF demonstrates a commitment to protecting customers, staff and local communities from fraud.
By bringing together partners from across the county, Suffolk Against Fraud aims to create a stronger, more resilient Suffolk where organisations are better equipped to recognise fraud risks, respond to emerging threats and safeguard those they serve.
