Join One East Midlands' Safer Future Communities networks

Following One East Midlands appointment to work in partnership with NAVCA and CLINKS to run four local networks in Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire and Nottinghamshire, as part of the Safer Future Communities programme, we are now looking for groups to join the networks.

The Safer Future Communities programme aims to support frontline VCS organisations in preparation for the arrival of Police and Crime Commissioners in November 2012. Its aim is to build a strong, vibrant and influential VCS network in each of the police and crime commissioners areas, which are replacing police authorities, in England and Wales to ensure knowledge of local needs is recognised in developing local policing plans.

One EM is currently working to establish these networks in the four counties, with the aim of making them self-sufficient and locally managed in the future. Voluntary Action Leicestershire will run the network in Leicestershire. If you are interested in joining one of the networks or in supporting One East Midlands with the programme email information@one-em.org.uk with the name of the county whose network you want to join.
