About the Bridgend Community Safety Partnership
Bridgend Community Safety Partnership brings together public, private and voluntary agencies that work together to reduce crime, disorder and fear of crime. They do this by tackling the needs of both individuals and communities. This improves residents’ quality of life, creates a safer living and working environment and enables residents to enjoy opportunities within their local communities.
Bridgend Community Safety Partnership is a sub board of the Bridgend Public Services Board. Its activities are included in the Wellbeing Assessment.
Supporting local communities to be safe and cohesive is included in the Bridgend Wellbeing Plan and is the community safety partnership’s overarching objective.
