Community Safety Partnership Plan

What is the Community Safety Partnership Plan?

CSP_Purple (2)

 

Every local responsible authority (as defined by the Crime & Disorder Act 1998) has to produce a three-year partnership plan.  The plan identifies how partner agencies intend to work together to address key priorities identified by the community and by assessing crime trends and related issues.

   

  

The Plan

The plan sets out:

  • How the statutory Community Safety Partnership strategy group (formerly known as the Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnership (CDRP)  is set up and run.
  • How the plan is to be delivered and how well the last pdf crime-and-disorder-strategy-2005-2008 was implemented.
  • Detailed action tables for each priority are presented together with how they will contribute to targets and key indicators over the new plan period 2008-2011. 

Key Shepway Priorities

As a result of community consultation and through a strategic assessment of crime levels a number of key priorities have been identified by Shepway and will be dealt with through partnership working.  The Shepway Community Safety Unit and the sub groups of the Community Safety Partnership will tackle the priorities that have been identified, these are summarised below:

  • Tackle anti-social behaviour
  • Promote a feeling of safety in Shepway
  • Increase engagement in the community
  • Reduce crime, particularly criminal damage, enviro-crime, hate crime and violent crime
  • Identify geographical focus area
  • Deal with substance misuse in the community
  • Deal with prolific offending

The priorities above will be dealt with by the Community Safety Unit.  To view further information about the Community Safety Unit please select this link.

The Annual Report

There is a requirement of the Shepway Community Safety Partnership to review the Community Safety Partnership Plan each year. 

The Shepway Community Safety Partnership has reviewed activity of the partnership, the Community Safety Unit (CSU) and its sub groups.  This has been summarised in an annual report covering the period 1st April 2008 to 31st March 2009.

The annual report provides an overview of projects and initiatives undertaken in the first year of the Plan, structures for delivery as well as crime and fear of crime figures for the last financial year.  It also looks at challenges for the future and revises priorities set out in the original three year plan.  To view the Annual Report please select the following link: pdf report-2009
