Policing & Community Safety Partnership
The overall purpose of the PCSP is to help make communities safer and to ensure that the voices of local people are heard on policing and community safety issues.
The PCSP aims to empower communities to work together to develop practical solutions that reduce crime, fear of crime, and anti-social behaviour.
The PCSP works in partnership with community groups and agencies to plan and deliver community safety projects that are innovative, follow good practice, and meet local needs.
