Crime & Disorder Partnership

The requirements of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 and the Police Reform Act have resulted in a partnership approach to reducing crime, disorder and the fear of crime.

The Teignbridge Crime & Disorder Partnership was created on the 1st of April 1999 and initially comprised of Devon and Cornwall Police, Teignbridge District Council, Devon County Council, Teignbridge Primary Care Trust and the Devon Probation Service. In addition to the original members the partnership today is made up of the South Devon Youth Offending Team, the Police Authority and the Fire Authority.
