Community Safety Plan 2006 - 2009

This Community Safety Plan sets out the County Council’s aims for ensuring that our county is a safe environment for all the people who live, work and visit Leicestershire.  We have already achieved much in partnership to improve the quality and safety of people’s lives and this Plan gives us the opportunity to do more.

We will play our part in delivering the priorities identified in local Crime and Disorder Reduction Strategies and we welcome the new challenges and opportunities which lie ahead with the implementation of the Local Area Agreement. We will ensure that priority is given to the  contribution of County Council services in the delivery of the safer communities outcomes in the Local Area Agreement, particularly in respect of key areas of youth crime prevention, domestic violence and hate crime.

We also need to ensure that residents actually feel reassured by the efforts that we are making, through partnership working, to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour. So we will continue to work closely with the Police Authority to put more community support officers on the beat which will, in turn, lead to increased community confidence and a reduction in fear of crime and anti-social behaviour.

I am looking forward to working with all our partners to deliver the Local Area Agreement which will be central to achieving better outcomes for everyone who lives and works in Leicestershire. This Plan will inevitably develop further as we progress, but the overall aim will be to achieve safer communities and improve the quality of life for people in Leicestershire.
