Community Safety
We all have the right to go about
our daily lives in safety. Improving community safety is one
of our highest priorities. We believe that keeping communities
safe involves more than just preventing crime and disorder
- we must also create social and economic change. But if we
are to make our communities safer, we must all work together.
National Community Safety Plan
The National
Community Safety Plan sets out how we will work
with local partners and residents to make everyone safer.
The plan was updated in December 2007, and is in line
with our recent Crime
Strategy and the government's public
service agreements (new window) .
It details how we will concentrate on the following
themes over the next four years:
- tackling more serious violence
- improving flexibility so local partners can
concentrate on local priorities
- increasing community confidence in the safety
of their neighbourhoods
- addressing the threat to communities
from violent extremists
