Strategies and reports

Community safety strategies and reports

The Community Safety Unit works in partnership with a variety of public, private and voluntary organisations to ensure that our work is increasingly focused and effective. It is important that we do this through active engagement with our communities and by providing proactive services that help to prevent problems before they start.

  • The KCC Framework for Community Safety (PDF, 380Kb) outlines priorities, expected achievements and activities.
  • The Community Safety Agreement (PDF, 226Kb) is designed to develop a more joined-up approach to public service delivery and to ensure sustainable and lasting improvements in delivering outcomes. The key objective of the Agreement is to meet the challenges of national, county and local aspirations for quality service delivery and improved levels of community engagement.
  • The aim of the Anti-Social Behaviour Strategy (PDF, 252Kb) is to offer a collaborative strategy to assist in reducing the level of anti-social behaviour in communities across the county. This strategy recognises the importance of working in partnership to develop and deliver solutions to anti-social behaviour. The priority will be prevention and early intervention and appropriate multi-agency action.
  • The Kent and Medway Domestic Abuse Strategy 2010-13 aims to assist partnerships and agencies in delivering appropriate responses to those affected by domestic abuse across Kent and Medway.
  • The impact of Offenders and Prisons on Kent’s Public Services report (PDF, 4Mb) looks across different aspects of public policy relating to prisons and offenders in Kent, and provides an overview of relationships between different agencies involved and the impact that ex-offenders and Kent's high proportion of prisons have on communities and public services.
