East
Ayrshire Council recognises that a lack of safety can have an adverse
effect on individuals, families, communities and businesses. Community
Safety is the protection of everyone's right to live without fear for
their own or other people's safety.
East Ayrshire Community Safety Partnership
brings together agencies, organisations and communities to identify
and prioritise what needs to be done, and to plan, co-ordinate and deliver
action to meet these identified priorities. Our guiding principles, as
set out in the East Ayrshire
Community Plan: Improving Community Safety
- Reducing Crime
- Improving Safety in our Neighbourhoods and Homes
- Improving Public Safety
will direct how we do this and make sure that community safety is consistent,
and at the forefront of the partners' agendas, and continues to impact
on people's safety through the communty planning process.
The Scottish Executive has made funding available through the Community
Safety Awards Programme for Community Safety Partnerships in Scotland.
