Southwark Police & Community Consultative Group 


Developing closer links with the Community to build a safer Southwark
 

Southwark Police and Community Consultative Group is an independent body established in 1984, and like it’s counterparts in other London boroughs, it exists to provide a forum for community representatives to meet with Senior Police Officers in the borough on Policing Matters and Community Safety.

PCCGs have pioneered the development of partnership initiatives that have enabled co-operation to replace conflict between local councils, the community and the police and has given the community a real voice in the policing of their areas.

The SPCCG, since its establishment, has been very active and consists of extremely experienced and dedicated members who live and work in the borough, and whose main priority is to make Southwark a safer place.

 

OUR MEMBERSHIP

The Group currently has a membership of 51, which includes 3 Members of Parliament, 8 Councilors, 12 Police Representatives and 28 Community Representatives. It is vital that Southwark PCCG represents the diversity of the borough.

Our membership consists of the following groups:

      Ø  Housing Tenants & Residents associations

Ø  Black & Asian

Ø  Victim Support and Mediation

Ø  Voluntary Organisations

Ø  Chamber of Commerce

Ø  Sector Working Groups

Ø  Amenity

Ø  Churches

Ø  Community Centres

Ø  Custody Visitors

Ø  Elderly

Ø  Probation Service, and other voluntary organizations.

 Each member is nominated by their organization/group for membership of the SPCCG.

Their views are an important part of the process because in addition to taking part in discussions on policing in the borough, they act as a vital communication link to their respective communities. This ensures that all sections of the community have a voice.
