Policy

Crime prevention

• From: Home Office
• Applies to: England and Wales

Crime has fallen significantly over the last 20 years, but there remain too many victims and crime itself is also changing. We need effective crime prevention which remains relevant as new crime emerges. Working with the police and other key partners we are targeting the key drivers of crime to stop crimes happening in the first place.
