Rugby Community Safety Partnership

About the partnership

The Rugby Community Safety Partnership (CSP) aims to create safer communities through the reduction of crime and the promotion of safety.

The CSP comprises the following organisations:

Rugby Borough Council
Warwickshire County Council
Warwickshire Police
Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service
Youth Justice Service
Public Health
Probation Service
NHS Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board

The Rugby CSP focuses on delivering the following statutory functions:

reduction of crime and disorder
combatting the misuse of drugs, alcohol and other substances
reduction of reoffending
prevention of serious violence

To achieve delivery, the CSP sets out strategic priorities based on a range of data assessed by Warwickshire County Council's business intelligence team.

The partnership's strategic priorities

The Rugby CSP has the following strategic priorities for 2021-2025:

young people linked to knife related violent crime
personal robbery
retail business crime
domestic abuse
exploitation of young people
hate crime

In addition to the strategic priorities, the CSP has committed to address themes which impact a number of the priorities, including cyber crime, drug and alcohol misuse, and reducing reoffending.

Local priorities

The Rugby CSP also has local priorities which have been set from studying intelligence received by partners and sub-groups, and through responses received during a public consultation.

The CSP has the current local priorities:

youth intervention - work with young people to prevent young people becoming victims or perpetrators of crime
violence against women and girls - work to reduce incidents of violence and/or harassment of women and girls
area-specific action, Benn Ward - focus on community safety in a ward with higher risk factors of crime due to deprivation and lower social and economic opportunities
