Cambridgeshire County Council improves co-operation between partner agencies in relation to community safety. We aim to provide countywide leadership and guidance on new policies and projects relating to community safety and crime reduction. This team includes representatives from the domestic abuse and sexual violence partnership and the Drug and Alcohol Action Team.
Objectives
The objective is to work closely with the local Community Safety Partnerships on projects to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour in Cambridgeshire.
The Countywide Community Safety Agreement for 2022 to 2025 outlines the priorities that have been chosen for the county. This is based on research and analysis undertaken via a Countywide Strategic Assessment of crime and disorder. There is also a Countywide Community Safety Board that oversees delivery of this agreement.
Community Safety Partnerships
We work closely with the five local Community Safety Partnerships (CSPs) to deliver the Countywide Community Safety Agreement.
- Cambridge City Community Safety Partnership
- East Cambridgeshire Community Safety Partnership
- Huntingdonshire Community Safety Partnership
- Safer Fenland Partnership
- South Cambridgeshire Community Safety Partnership
The CSPs are statutory multi-agency partnerships and they each include representation from the six responsible authorities:
- police
- police authorities
- local authorities
- fire and rescue services
- primary care trust (PCT)
- probation trust
