Have You or Someone You Know Been Affected by Tool Theft?
Every 9 minutes, a work van is broken into, leaving tradespeople to face stolen tools, damaged vehicles, and lost livelihoods. It''s a devastating issue affecting the entire trades community, and its time for action. Have you or someone you know experienced this?
At JJ Roofing Supplies, were standing with Trades United to support the Stop Tool Theft Rally on Monday, 3rd February 2025, and we want you to get involved too. Together, we can demand stricter laws and better enforcement to protect hardworking tradespeople from this growing epidemic.
Whats Happening?
Trades United is hosting a peaceful rally in Parliament Square, Westminster, to call on the government to:
- Enforce stricter penalties for thieves and those selling stolen tools.
- Provide better funding for law enforcement to tackle tool theft.
- Protect tradespeoples livelihoods by updating outdated laws.
The rally will begin with a van convoy from Brent Cross at 11:00 AM, arriving in Westminster by 12:00 PM.

Why It Matters.
Tool theft doesnt just cost money - it costs time, trust, and security. For tradespeople, it can mean losing weeks of work and adding financial burdens, like replacing tools or repairing vehicles. We believe its time for action, and JJ Roofing Supplies is proud to support our customers in this movement.
