The wider community

Whatever the specific issues facing a partnership, ways need to be developed about getting information into the wider community to:

  • address the public’s concerns about thinking crime levels are higher than they actually are.
  • distribute crime prevention advice in a way which will help promote a greater sense of security.
  • inform people about what is going on in their community to make them feel safer.
  • getting people involved in their local community and keeping this activity going.

Look at section 6 Good Communication for more details about how to communicate to residents more effectively.

You could also check the Fear of Crime Matrix to find out where your area best fits to see which messages may have a bigger impact.
