National Community Safety Network (NCSN) -
UNITING FOR SAFER COMMUNITIES

Police – an essential part of the voice of Community Safety in the UK


The Network has represented practitioners’ views and interests and provided a number of information services for more than a decade. As interest in the subject of Community Safety and Crime Reduction NCSN membership has increased, so has the viability of the Network as a lobbying body.

Working in Partnership to Reduce Re-offending and Make Communities Safer: A Consultation
The national Partnerships Event, held by NOMS, on 27 November, saw the launch of four consultations outlining the Government’s programme of work on reducing re-offending. To help build on existing good practice and to engage the efforts of public services more effectively, the Government is asking partners what they think the priorities and focus should be at local, regional, or national levels to further reduce re-offending. The objective is to ensure all key partners continue to work with offenders and their families.

The four consultations are firmly linked together and cover distinct issues associated with re-offending:
1. Reducing Re-Offending Strategic Plan 2008-11
2. NOMS Third Sector Action Plan
3. ‘Believing We Can’
The period of consultation for these three publications ends on 18 February 2008.

4. ‘Improving Health, Supporting Justice’ Strategy
This consultation period ends on 4 March 2008.
