Fraud Prevention Statement

Fraud is not a victimless crime. It does real harm because it takes money away from the people and services that need it most, and puts it into fraudsters' pockets. We have a zero tolerance approach which means we do not accept it in any form. It is difficult to put a figure on the cost of fraud, but some estimate the loss as being  billions of pounds every year.

At the Regenda Group we have a dedicated Fraud Team which is made up of the Executive  Director of Resources, the Group Company Secretary, the Director of Finance, the Director of ICT and the Director of People Services. These senior leaders are here to prevent problems, spot risks, and support investigations. If fraud or bribery is found, we will take action.

We have measures in place to identify and reduce the risk of fraud and bribery and we train our staff to understand the risks and know what to do if they see something wrong. Everyone is supported to speak up and raise concerns.

Dr Michael R. Birkett is the Group Chief Executive and is responsible for overseeing fraud prevention. He says:

“The Regenda Group is committed to tackling fraud and bribery and ensuring that all staff, contractors and third parties are aware of the reporting lines that should be used should any suspicions or concerns arise.

"We all play an essential role in helping to reduce fraud and bribery. The Regenda Group requires all staff at all times to uphold the Group’s values to safeguard the resources for which they are responsible.”

It’s hard to say exactly how much fraud costs, but experts believe it could be billions of pounds every year.

At Regenda Group, we have a team that works to stop fraud and bribery. This team includes senior leaders from across the organisation. They help prevent problems, spot risks, and support investigations. If fraud or bribery is found, we will take action.

We also train our staff to understand the risks and know what to do if they see something wrong. Everyone is supported to speak up and raise concerns.

Dr Michael R. Birkett, our Group Chief Executive, leads this work. He says:

“Regenda Group is serious about stopping fraud and bribery. We want all staff, contractors and partners to know how to report concerns. We all have a part to play in protecting our resources and doing the right thing.”
