Crime Reduction - Helping to Reduce Crime in Your Area

The Effective Practice Database is a database of projects that have been tried around the country. The purpose of this searchable pool of data is to raise awareness of what is being carried out nationally and possible options to consider, putting the lessons learned from these examples into your own context.

Effective Practice in this instance can therefore be defined as "practice , when shared, enhances other CDRP's/CSP's ability to tackle crime and disorder effectively."

Don't forget that what works in one location will not automatically work everywhere (or anywhere) else. Therefore, you will need to consider factors that are most relevant to your area and the problem you are addressing.

You can search the database using the panel below, or find the latest additions to the database.

We're also interested to hear about your experiences. If you've done something, or have an innovative initiative planned, then let us know.
