Safer Westminster Partnership

How the Safer Westminster Partnership works to reduce the risk and harm of crime and antisocial behaviour.

The SWP is made up of Westminster City Council, Metropolitan Police, London Fire Brigade, National Probation Service, and the Integrated Care Board, each of whom has a legal duty to work together to reduce crime and disorder in Westminster.

Cutting crime and improving safety is not only about effective policing; it relies upon understanding the factors that enable crime and anti-social behaviour (ASB) to take place, working together in partnership to neutralise those factors and doing so in a reasoned and evidence-based way.

The SWP takes a detailed evidence base from our annual strategic assessment to identify the key crime and disorder issues affecting Westminster and develops a three-year strategy and annual action plans to address them.
