Community safety
Policing and Community Safety Partnerships (PCSPs) work to make communities safer, making sure that the voices of local people are heard. In Belfast we have an overarching Policing and Community Safety Partnership and four District Policing and Community Safety Partnerships (North, South, East and West).
Each partnership is made up of elected and independent members and representatives from the statutory organisations.
For minutes of PCSP and District PCSP meetings, contact us by email: pcsp@belfastcity.gov.uk
We aim to build safer, shared and confident communities by:
From December 2021 to March 2022, Belfast PCSP undertook a strategic assessment of Policing and Community Safety in Belfast. This exercise was completed to make sure that the priorities identified continue to reflect priority policing and community safety issues in the area. It was informed by analysis of information provided by statutory partners, as well as the results of ongoing city wide engagement and consultation on policing and community safety across the council area.
