What is the High Peak Community Safety What is the High Peak Community Safety Partnership (CSP)?Partnership (CSP)?

Community Safety Partnerships were set up as statutory bodies under sections of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 and aim to bring agencies and communities together to tackle crime and Anti-Social Behaviour in the local community.

They are made up of a range of different agencies, some of which are statutory (required to be there by law) and some of which are voluntary or co-operating members. This includes social landlords and partners from the voluntary sector.


Since 1998, High Peak Borough Council has been a leading partner on the High Peak Community Safety Partnership.

The High Peak community safety partnership sets priorities, manages resources and monitors the activity of the partnership.

We have a joint community safety partnership with Derbyshire Dales which meets formally 4 times a year


The partnership includes organisations such as High Peak Borough Council, Derbyshire County Council, Derbyshire Police, High Peak Community Housing, Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service, Derbyshire Probation Service and NHS Derbyshire County and NHS Tameside and Glossop.

Other organisations that we work with include community groups, residents’ associations, schools and colleges and organisations such as High Peak Women’s Aid, Derbyshire Association of Local Councils and University of Derby.

What does it do?What does it do?

By law, we must work together to tackle:

• Crime and disorder

• Antisocial behaviour

• Behaviour that spoils the local environment, like dumping rubbish (fly-tipping), graffiti and dog mess in Public areas

• Misusing drugs and alcohol

• Adult offenders and young offenders reoffending (people who cause trouble in your local area

What does it do?What does it do?

We must carry out a review (a strategic assessment) of the problems in the district each year. We must also ask you about crime and disorder issues in your area and about the problems that you think are the most important for us to tackle.

We have to use this information to choose the most important problems that we need to tackle in the borough in the next year. We must then produce plans that show how we will work together to tackle these problems.
