Fix Radio Presents: The Tool Theft Epidemic
In this audio documentary, Fix Radio dives deeper than ever before into the biggest issue affecting tradespeople today, tool theft.
The scale of tool theft in the UK is now unprecedented. In under a minute, tools ranging from £100 to £10,000 can be stolen - and the lives of tradespeople upended.
Join us as we campaign outside Parliament; track the police raid that uncovered £2 million worth of stolen equipment; and cross party lines to investigate the fallout from tool theft.
We’re demanding answers to the question every tradesperson is asking: why hasn’t tool theft stopped yet?
This episode features contributions from: Shoaib Awan, Steve Baker, Dale Wherton, Jamie Gilhooley, Insp. Mark Connolly, Sgt. Dave Catlow, Clive Holland, Amanda Martin MP, Chance Litchfield & Alex Mansuroglu.
This programme contains discussions of suicide and mental health. Listener discretion is advised.
