Projects

In addition to the core services listed on the 'Membership' page, the Brighton Crime Reduction Partnership administers a series of special projects to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour in the city. Building on our strong foundations we continually strive to innovate to ensure we are offering the best possible service to our members and stakeholders.


 

putting it right

Our award winning 'Putting It Right' restorative justice scheme helps to address re-offending rates at the root cause - the person committing the offence.

A community resolution offers victims of crime an informal, flexible response to the incident they have reported. At the same time, it offers offenders a 'second chance'- an opportunity to make amends for their mistakes without suffering consequences which can dramtically affect future life chances. 


Mobile Support Unit Accreditation

The BCRP Mobile Support Unit Accreditation is a quality assurance scheme to assist businesses seeking to hire a security company offering a vehicle-based mobile support function. 


vulnerability training and ask 4 angela

The Brighton Crime Reduction Partnership has worked in close partnership with Sussex Police to create innovative campaigns to help prevent rape and serious sexual offences occurring in the night time economy in the city. These campaigns have primarily been focused on providing members of staff with adequate training opportunities to help them to spot vulnerable individuals. 


Youth early intervention plan

The youth early intervention plan sets out a framework to look to support and divert children before they have committed a crime and come into contact with the youth justice system. The plan is seeking all agencies in the city to play a role in ensuring the vulnerabilities of children in the community are met and that agencies are investing their resources into early prevention.


Night Safety Marshal Project

The Night Safety Marshal project (NSM) was created in the summer of 2022 as an innovative response to the reduction of serious violence in Sussex. The Night Safety Marshals are SIA-accredited and trained members of security who patrol the city centre on Friday and Saturday nights to engage with members of the public, help people get home safely, and be a positive presence in the night time economy. Managed by the Brighton Crime Reduction Partnership, the project has expanded to cover Brighton, Crawley, and Eastbourne.
