Rugby Community Safety Partnership

The Rugby CSP has confirmed its strategic priorities for 2025 to 2029, following a detailed assessment of crime trends, community feedback, and risk analysis. These priorities reflect the most pressing safety concerns in the borough and guide the partnership’s coordinated response.

Strategic Priorities

• Young People Involved in Serious Violence. Focus on prevention and exploitation of young people.
• Domestic Abuse. Focus on repeat perpetrators and increasing reporting.
• Business Crime. Focus on shoplifting and business burglary
• Hate Crime. Focus on all strands of hate crime.

Cross-Cutting Themes

These are key issues that influence multiple areas of community safety and are embedded across all CSP activity:

• Reducing Reoffending
• Substance Misuse

Emerging and Monitored Themes

The CSP will also monitor and respond to the following issues:

• Rape and Other Sexual Offences
• Residential Burglary
• Environmental Anti-Social Behaviour
• Serious Organised Crime
• Cyber Crime (no longer a cross-cutting theme but still monitored)

These priorities were agreed by the Rugby CSP Board in March 2025 and will be reviewed regularly to ensure they remain relevant and effective.

The Rugby CSP has structures for both its governance and the delivery of the CSP's strategic priorities.
