Safer Glasgow -

Glasgow Community and Safety Services – About

About Us

We are an organisation which aims to prevent crime, tackle antisocial behaviour and promote community safety in the city. We bring together around 500 staff from Glasgow City Council, Strathclyde Police, Strathclyde Fire and Rescue and Glasgow’s Community Safety Partnership.

In order to ensure we are providing local solutions to local issues we have developed a three-locality approach to our organisation, which aligns our services with Strathclyde Police divisions and the Community Planning Partnership – further enhancing our partnership working.

Each of our locality teams – west and centre; north and east; and south – comprise a wide range of services that allow us to achieve our six key objectives:

to reduce antisocial behaviour and crime;
to increase prevention and diversion opportunities for young people;
to make Glasgow a cleaner place;
to provide community reassurance in relation to antisocial behaviour and crime;
to provide support to families and individuals;
to reduce violence against women.

By working in genuine partnership on a wide range of crime prevention, antisocial behaviour and community safety issues we can make a real difference to communities across Glasgow.
