Safer Neighbourhoods

The Safer Neighbourhood Scheme has been developed in South Derbyshire and is being co-ordinated by the Safer South Derbyshire Partnership. It aims to ensure that public concerns relating to crime and disorder issues are recognised and acted upon by providing dedicated and accountable resources to dedicated geographical areas.

We use an inter agency approach to tackle problems and hold bi monthly meetings in each of the six areas to which members of the statutory agencies and the public are invited. The aim is to reduce the fear of crime and create safer environments.

The six areas are as follows:

Area 1: Etwall - Hilton - Hatton - Burnaston
Area 2: Willington - Findern - Repton - Bretby
Area 3: Melbourne - Aston - Weston - Shardlow - Thulston - Elvaston
Area 4: Swadlincote - Woodville - Church Gresley - Hartshorne
Area 5: Newhall - Midway
Area 6: Overseal - Linton - Netherseal - Coton - Castle Gresley

Minutes of these meetings are available on the South Derbyshire District Council website (opens in a new window).
