London Community Safety Partnership

The London Community Safety Partnership (LCSP) was set up in 2006 as a regional partnership for London comprising those agencies that jointly seek to reduce and prevent crime, anti-social behaviour, drug addiction and the impact of terrorism in the capital.

The Partnership makes an important contribution in developing the strategic framework aimed at ensuring community safety and reducing crime and anti-social behaviour. It also aims to present a unified message to Whitehall on issues such as CSR, emerging PSAs and a range of policy issues

 

LCSP seeks to enable local partnerships to fully meet  their responsibilities and to develop positive relationships across borough and agency lines,  helping to address themes such as drug related crime, gangs, guns & knives, terrorism, youth crime, the prolific and priority offenders scheme, as well as interventions to improve the quality of people’s lives and to prevent reoffending.

 

The Partnership comprises senior executives and members from:

 

·        The Metropolitan Police Service and British Transport Police

·        Pan-London agencies including London Councils, the Greater London Authority, the Metropolitan Police Authority and the Government Office for London

·        Local authority representation including 5 London local authority Chief Executives and the London Community Safety Managers’ Policy Forum

·        Regional partners involved with Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships including the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority and NHS London and Transport for London

·        Criminal justice agencies including London Probation, the National Offender Management Service, London Criminal Justice Board and the Youth Justice Board.

·        The Home Office Police and Crime Standards Unit

·         Other bodies by invitation according to any particular theme under scrutiny.

 

The Partnership generally meets every two months.  Its meetings are chaired by the Deputy Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service and an Executive Committee directs the LCSP’s work programme.
