THE CONNECTED CITY
A SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY FOR BRIGHTON & HOVE

COMMUNITY SAFETY & RESILIENCE

We all want everybody to feel safe within our city. We work hard to ensure that children are as safe as they can be and that young and old feel safe to be in the city centre at any time of the day or night.

Our city is diverse, in terms of gender, sexuality, age and ethnicity. Our community safety services work with a wide variety of groups to understand their concerns and meet their needs.

We are a very busy city and it is important that we continue to strive to make our roads and travel systems as safe as possible for all of our residents and visitors.

To improve community safety the police work with the local authority, probation services, voluntary organisations and others. We are regarded as an example of good practice for the way in which we manage our night time economy and for our work in reducing business related crime.
