Read about the different crime and community safety partnerships which the WCN is represented on.

Safer Westminster Partnership

The Westminster Community Network is represented on the Safer Westminster Partnership, which is the main community safety partnership for Westminster.

The Safer Westminster Partnership is a statutory partnership established as a consequence of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998. The Partnership, currently led by the Police, has a duty to conduct an audit of crime, disorder, anti-social behaviour and drug misuse in Westminster, to consult widely on the findings and set strategies to tackle the issues identified.
