Summary

Executive Summary

This Executive Summary highlights some of the key areas of focus for the Partnership over the coming year. With a number of offender management programmes in place, such as Troubled Families, IRiS and IMPACT, the Strategic Assessment recommends cross matching the perpetrators of hate crime and domestic violence and abuse against these cohort of offenders to jointly target approaches. The Strategic Assessment has highlighted local and national intelligence gaps that Bristol is working on addressing, which include Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), Human Trafficking and Terrorism and Violent Extremism. The most significant types of anti-social behaviour (ASB) in Bristol are disturbance and nuisance, harassment and threats, assault, and domestic disturbance or violence Together these account for 88% of ASB reported to the City’s authorities (Avon & Somerset Police, Bristol City Council and Avon Fire & Rescue). Resources need to be available to meet the demographic challenge and the likely increased demands on the system
