Our Partners

One of the key ways the Police Authority works with partner organisations is through Community Safety Partnerships.

Community Safety Partnerships were established following the Crime and Disorder Act 1998. They provide a structure that allows public, private and voluntary sector organisations to work together to develop and implement a strategy to reduce crime and disorder locally. In April 2003 Police and Fire Authorities joined the Police and Local Authorities as ‘responsible authorities’, with statutory responsibility to carry out the functions of the Partnerships.

The Police Authority works with 5 Community Safety Partnerships as follows:
 

District	Lead Members of the Police Authority
Bradford	Michael Walls
Calderdale	David Kirton
Kirklees	Ken Smith, David Hall
Leeds	Les Carter, Mohammed Iqbal, Alison Lowe
Wakefield	Mark Burns-Williamson
