2008 Strategic Assessment

The aim of the Strategic Assessment is to analyse the current priorities around crime, anti-social behaviour, substance misuse and behaviour adversly affecting the environment and to identify future gaps and risks tha impact upon Tendring District and our communities.

2007/08 Action Plan

The CDRP has recently launched it's new crime busting Action Plans which aim to achieve a government  set target to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour by 16% by 2008.

The plans are proactive but also responsive to constantly changing crime patterns, and involve multi-partnership co-operation between all main authorities. New 'face the people' sessions will be organised alongside Neighbourhood Policing panels to allow local people to have their views heard.

Tendring CDRP Community Safety Survey 2007

The CDRP has recently conducted a Community Safety Survey. The survey highlighted that people are claiming to have experienced less crime and less anti-social behaviour.

However the public continue to have a disproportionate fear of crime. in response to the findings of the survey a number of initiatives in the 2006/07 Action Plans are planned to address the main crime and disorder priorities you highlighted in the survey. Take a look at the survey findings and action plans on this site for more details.

An Audit of Crime & Disorder in Tendring
 

In July 1998 the Crime and Disorder Act came into force and created Crime and Disorder reduction Partnerships (CDRPs) in England and Wales. Tendring CDRP is a partnership between Tendring District Council, Essex Police, the Police Authority, Essex County Council, Tendring Primary Care Trust and Essex Fire and Rescue Service.

Every three years, the Crime and Disorder Act requires CDRPs to carry out an audit of crime, drug misuse, Anti-Social Behaviour and disorder within the district, and prepare a three year Strategy to reduce its incidence.

 

Final Crime & Disorder Reduction Strategy for Tendring 2005-2008

The CDRP has completed a comprehensive audit of crime and drugs within Tendring. The partnership reviewed the findings to determine the revised priority areas for the new strategy beginning April 2005. The document contains a summary of the priority areas identified from the audit with the basic reasons behind their choice.

 

Media and Communication Strategy

The Community Plan for Tendring, 'New Connections', provides a joint vision for our District looking ahead over five years with an annual rolling program of action. It charts how to recognise and respond to the needs of the public and to influence the anticipated challenges and opportunities facing the area based on co-operation between the partners.

To improve the quality of life in the District partners have agreed to work together on nine key strategic themes. Community Safety is one of those themes. In our multi-agency approach, co-operation and information sharing between all the agencies of the partnership is essential, if we are to achieve our objective to reduce the incidence and fear of crime and disorder, and to make the area a safer place to live.

The analysis of the crime audit, and the subsequent public consultation, has resulted in the adoption of the following key themes, which will form the basis of the Crime and Disorder Strategy for the Tendring district for the next three years. The themes, not listed in any order of priority are: -
