The School of Applied Sciences, in collaboration with SIPR, warmly invite you to attend what will be a fascinating insight by Ben Bradford, Professor of Global City Policing at the UCL Jill Dando Institute of Security and Crime Science, into the effects of Stop & Search on people and crime.

Is there an association between Stop and Search and crime (particularly drug crime)?

Or are the claims that this is an effective way to control and deter offending misplaced?

What does it really do?
