1 x Local Government Reorganisation Programme - Community Safety Project

Community safety is any activity that is designed to prevent and reduce crime and reassure communities so that they feel safer. The type of services offered differ between District Councils and the County Council, but the local government reorganisation means that all these services will need to come together, align or look different. A group of colleagues across the county have come together to manage this planned change, but require some assistance to help organise and coordinate much of this activity. Duties will include arranging meetings, creating and monitoring project plans, keeping individual officers to task and tracking progress to ensure that all planned activity is successfully delivered by 31st March 2023.
