"To reduce crime and disorder and improve community safety in the Borough of Tamworth"

The 1998 Crime and Disorder Act places a duty on specific agencies to work together as Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships (CDRPs) to tackle crime and disorder problems within their local areas.

Please visit Tamworth's Community Safety Partnership website

Section 5 of the Act requires the responsible authorities and other key agencies to:

• conduct and publish an audit of local crime and disorder problems.
• consult locally on the basis of that audit.
• set and publish objectives and targets for the reduction of crime and disorder.
  monitor progress.

The partnership is made up of:

• Staffordshire Police and Police Authority
• Staffordshire County Council
• South Staffordshire Primary Care Trust
• Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service and Fire Authority
• Staffordshire Drug and Alcohol Action Team and many others.

The Tamworth Community Safety Partnership (TCSP) co-ordinates and delivers projects on the priorities identified by local residents.
