Strategy

Every three years, the Government calls upon community safety partnerships to produce a strategy of crime reduction targets for the following three years.

The Safer Hastings Strategy 2005-08 set the ambitious target of reducing crime in Hastings & St Leonards by 23.5%. This target was achieved and exceeded -- crime fell 27%.

The Hastings Community Safety Plan 2008-11 was launched in April 2008, outlining the Partnership’s intention to reduce crime even further over the next three years.

The Community Safety Plan also outlines the Safer Hastings Partnership's priorities over the next three years.
