Stoke-on-Trent Safer City Partnership was officially launched in October 2007. It is responsible for implementing the national crime, disorder, drug and alcohol strategies at a local level. Its aim is to work in active partnership,
“creating a safer, stronger and healthier city by reducing crime, disorder, substance misuse and associated problems”.
Our Priorities 2010/11
Each year the Partnership undertakes a needs assessment to determine the priorities for the coming year. The following priorities were identified for 2011/12:
- Antisocial behaviour,
- Violent crime,
- Drugs and alcohol,
- Offending behaviour and re-offending,
- Acquisitive crime including, personal robbery, shoplifting, home burglary and bogus callers.
The successful implementation of these strategies depends on a partnership approach being adopted. These associated issues are complex and require a range of agencies to be responsible for delivering the agenda.
Therefore, membership includes a wide range of stakeholders from:
- Public sector
- Private sector
- Voluntary sector
- Community
