Safety & Policing

We have set Service Standards for a range of the services we provide. These are designed to advise you of the service you can expect from us and we hope you find them useful.

Community Safety in Charnwood is delivered through working in partnership with agencies such as the Police, Youth Offending Team, Probation Service, Leicestershire County Council, Charnwood Borough Council and other agencies. Representatives from these agencies lead the partnership process and make decisions on funding etc. This is known as the Charnwood Community Safety Partnership  

Leicestershire Constabulary is responsible for providing a policing service to the people of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

The Leicestershire Police Authority is the independent body responsible for overseeing our Police Constabulary.  With the planned reductions in funding, the Police Authority is challenged with setting a budget that includes significant savings while maintaining an effective police service.  Follow this link to find out the latest on their plans for delivering the necessary savings.

Charnwood is also served by the Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service.
