Policing and Community Safety Partnership

Ards and North Down Policing and Community Safety Partnership (PCSP) aims to make our neighbourhoods safer.  We do this by focusing on the policing and community safety issues that matter most to you. In order to achieve this we: ​

  • consult and engage with the local community on the issues of concern in relation to policing and community safety. Your view helps us direct and prioritise police resources.
  • identify and prioritise the particular issues of concern and prepare plans for how these can be tackled.
  • monitor  the performance of the police to ensure local policing is both effective and responsive to local need.
  • deliver a reduction in crime and enhance community safety in our district, directly through our own interventions, through the work of our delivery groups and through support for the work of others.

Who we are

PCSP members
