About the North Somerset Community Safety Partnership

The 1998 Crime and Disorder Act sets out the statutory requirements for responsible authorities to work together with other local agencies, organisations, and people, to develop and deliver strategies to tackle crime and disorder and help create safer communities. These statutory partnerships are known as Community Safety Partnerships (CSP).

The North Somerset Community Safety Partnership is made up of organisations who work together and with communities to tackle crime and disorder and improve community safety for local residents.

• North Somerset Council
• Avon and Somerset Constabulary
• Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Clinical Commissioning Group
• Avon Fire & Rescue
• Community Rehabilitation Company
• National Probation Service

Other community safety partners such as the Youth Offending Service, Public Health, Adult and Children's Services and Registered Social Landlords are invited to attend meetings of the North Somerset CSP if they wish.
