Safer Stronger Communities

We want to ensure that local people continue to have the drive, confidence and commitment to make a difference in their neighbourhood.

We want to encourage communities to have a sense of belonging, identity and pride in their area, through supporting the voluntary and community sector, improving the range of activities available to all and tackling crime and social isolation.

We recognise that crime has a significant impact on communities, and feeling safe is an important facator in achieving a good quality of life and sense of wellbeing. 

Agencies, such as the police, council and health services, working together with voluntary and community organisations and local communities can have an impact.
