Reducing re-offending

The Salford Community Safety Partnership has put projects in place to reduce re-offending thereby reducing crime and disorder in the city.

The Community Safety team works in partnership with the Greater Manchester Police and the Greater Manchester Probation Trust to manage offenders.

As individuals come back into the community they need a place and money to live. Without these they may feel that crime may be their only option. The longer they have been in custody, the harder it is to integrate back with their family and into the community.

Many individuals can lose touch with their children, family and friends and this just adds to the problem. Without support many will find themselves re-offending and many end up in prison again.
