Local Community Safety Partnership
The Cork City Local Community Safety Partnership is a group of 30 members who work together to enhance Community Safety in Cork City. It is a statutory committee established in October 2025 following the commencement of the Policing, Security and Community Policing Act. The Safety Partnership meets six times a year including an annual public meeting.
What is Community Safety?
The concept of community safety is about people being safe and feeling safe in their community.
The new Community Safety Policy Paper will ensure communities are safer and feel safer by making community safety a whole of Government responsibility and priority, to be delivered through Local Community Safety Partnerships (LCSPs), supported through a national governance structure.
