The government鈥檚 Champion for Active Safer Communities, Baroness Newlove鈥檚 report, 鈥極ur Vision for Safe and Active Communities鈥�, calls for a change of culture so neighbourhoods no longer see crime, antisocial behaviour (ASB) and disorder as 鈥榮omeone else鈥檚 problem鈥�; and for services to go beyond simply asking communities what their problems are and see them as equal partners in resolving those issues.

Recommendations

Baroness Newlove鈥檚 recommendations for local areas to take forward include:

• 鈥楥ommunity Reward鈥� - where information provided by the community leads to a conviction the community is given a reward to spend on crime prevention work
• 鈥楤ling Back鈥� - where money made from selling local drug dealers鈥� assets is handed back to the neighbourhood they blighted
• letting communities set their own local speed limits
• taking crime maps to the next level so people can use them to report crime and ASB and agencies can publish details of what action was taken against offenders
• giving the public a single point of contact through the roll out of the 101 number to report ASB
• providing council tax rebates, or vouchers for local businesses and services, for people who take part in activism
• asking Police and Crime Commissioners to commit at least one per cent of their budget to grass roots community groups to use or have a say on
