What is our role?
It’s about you feeling safe, whether at home, in the street or at work. It relates to quality of life and being able to pursue and obtain the fullest benefit from domestic, social and economic life without fear of crime and disorder.
All members of the community have a role in to play in Community Safety, whether it be a business, an agency, a resident or a visitor.
