VPS Holdings Limited (VPS) has just released their latest version of its ground-breaking initiative, to help sites prepare and be secured, before trespassers set up illegal encampments. According to the latest government statistics, the number of travellers’ caravans in the United Kingdom (UK) has almost tripled from 8,000 to 23,000, between 1979 and 2020.
When several caravans settle in unauthorised encampments, it can be a costly exercise to move them on and clean-up after they have departed - costs that are estimated to reach over £ 100 million annually for councils and private land-owners combined.
