Community safety, anti-social behaviour, domestic abuse and substance misuse can affect individuals, families and communities. The team works within the local authority and with partners to strategically plan and co-ordinate activity to address these issues.
The team ensures that the council's responses to these community safety issues are maximised and obligations under the Crime and Disorder Act are satisfied. They work across all departments and services in the local authority and with a wide range of other partners to facilitate joint initiatives.
