16. John Hayward-Cripps Victim Support, Locality Director

17. 17 National Community Safety Network conference – PCCs, a new landscape John Hayward-Cripps Locality Director, Victim Support 23 October 2012

18. 18 Some background information on Victim Support:

19. 19 In the last year, Victim Support has worked with over 1.1 million victims of crime. And our Witness Service gives help and support to 300,000 witnesses every year. Over 7,000 victims contacted 1,700 witnesses supported Each month in the east of England alone:

20. 20 We know that our work is having an impact Victims that have contact with Victim Support are: 36% more likely to say the police are doing a good or excellent job than those not having contact with Victim Support. 30% more likely to say they have confidence in the Criminal Justice System.

21. 21 The role of Victim Support Automatic referrals and self- referrals Practical support Emotional support A demand-led service

22. 22 Government consultation – ‘getting it right for victims and witnesses’ Earlier this year, the Ministry of Justice confirmed consultation response regarding victim services. PCCs, across 41 police force areas, would be given responsibility for locally funding victim services. VS now looking forward to the new world under PCCs – lots of opportunities! VS will work closely with PCCs in the best interests of victims and witnesses.

23. 23 ‘5 promises’ for victims and witnesses Victim Support has asked PCC candidates to sign up to a set of ‘5 promises’ (or pledges) ahead of the election on 15 November. These are: 1.Be open and accountable to victims and witnesses, seeking out and acting on their views. 2.Ensure that victims and witnesses get the high quality help and support they need, when they need it. 3.Make the police more victim-focused and more effective at meeting their needs. 4.Give victims and witnesses an effective voice in the wider criminal justice system. 5.Constantly work to develop new ways of delivering justice for victims.

24. 24 ‘5 promises’ for victims and witnesses Scores of PCC candidates are declaring their commitment to victims and witnesses. To date, a total of 115 PCC candidates have signed up and we hope to see more doing so before the election. Of those candidates who have not signed up, the majority still wish to adopt and implement the contents of the five promises. These five simple pledges, put into practice by elected PCCs, will help safeguard and improve help for everyone affected by crime.

25. 25 PCCs duty towards victims Under Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act, PCCs will have a statutory duty to obtain the views of victims. First time such a requirement has been written into law How can we ensure that this duty becomes a reality? PCC Oath of Office – reference made to victims.

26. 26 Victim Support activity – pre election Our local managers have been engaging with PCC candidates across England and Wales, and encouraging sign up to the ‘5 promises’ Arranging and hosting a number of PCC hustings or ‘question time’ events. Hosting PCC events at Conservative and Labour party conferences. Engaging with Police Authorities, contributing to transition board discussions.

27. 27 What will happen once PCCs are elected It is important that the third sector continue to inform and engage with PCCs once in office. Continue to emphasise the importance of meeting victim and witness needs. Assist PCCs in the implementation of setting priorities for victims and witnesses. Share examples of best practice with PCCs.

28. 28 Commissioning of victim services It is expected that PCCs will be given funding responsibility for commissioning victim services by 2014. Challenging, but exciting time for Victim Support – many organisations within sector will be seeking to impress PCCs. Feel we are in an excellent position to secure funding from PCCs and we have a lot to offer.

29. 29 Community Safety Funding Home Office have advised that they will maintain funding arrangements until at least March 2013. PCCs will then receive some funding for community safety priorities. In 2014, the community safety fund will be rolled in to the larger police funding budget.

30. 30 Sharing best practice with PCCs PCCs will make a decision on electing a national body that will seek to provide a national voice for PCCs, forum for discussion (early 2013). Local examples of best practice will continue to be supplied through PCCs and their teams, regardless of decision to appoint a national body. Victim Support feels well placed to advise PCCs on examples of best practice

31. 31 Some of the opportunities for PCCs Act as a natural link between the courts and the police service. Allow all victims that want it the opportunity to participate in Restorative Justice. The ability to give more victims a voice in the criminal justice system. Encourage police forces to adopt innovative measures to better support victims.

32. 32 The possible impact of PCCs A potential to bring organisations together and encourage better partnership working. An effective leadership role – the ability to take initiative and speak up for the public on important issues. PCC may need to prioritise certain services within the sector.

65. NCSN’s Peer Networks

66. “activities where people support each other” “a system of giving and receiving help founded on key principles of respect, shared responsibility, and mutual agreement of what is helpful” (Mead et al, 2001)

67. “Communities of practice are groups of people who share a passion for something that they know how to do and who interact regularly to learn how to do it better” (Wenger et al, 2002)

68. The constructivist approach: – Organisations risk being “anchored” in their own contexts (Muijs et al, 2010). – Networking provides a method to which understanding can be broadened without being limited by local contexts (Weick, 1995).

69. Peer networks can re-invest social capital when people move on from their roles (Lloyd, 2007) Peer networks have the “ability to harness resources held by other actors and increase the flow of information” (Lin, 1999)

70. Harnessed social capital (eg within a workforce) In purposive action. Accessed and mobilised; Resources embedded in social context; Primary elements of social capital

71. Age of austerity – stress on budgets New challenges to respond to (locally and nationally) Large amount of role and responsibility change across public sector; institutional knowledge gaps National trend of a more active society, eg Big Society, fixmystreet.org, police.uk

72. ‘Virtual’, noticeable practise site for all NCSN members Info exchange People sharing experience and new ideas Support-needs of the sector: – Professional qualification linked to our work – Knowledge hub Timely information from the centre Knowledge and experience; sharing of expertise Resources and abilities Sharing of good practice Sharing of successful projects to tackle certain issues; borrow with pride Support to continue to deliver effectively in a changing environment (eg PCC, reduced resources) Knowing what toys the other agencies have to bring to the party. Independent, constructive support; mentoring; critical friends Sharing information Partnership working Not re-inventing the wheel

73. Members said networks would allow them to explore the following with other members: Listen to, and respond to, the needs of young people in our communities Better links across Criminal Justice system agencies Funding Transitional change Policy/procedures Projects that have worked How to work with PCCs How to do more with less

74. Members said networks would allow them to explore the following with other members: Culture of trust (highest priority) Participation in networks demonstrated value There was a strong level of interaction

75. Peer networks dedicated to work topics – eg the night-time economy, ASB, PCC/PCP transition, community sentencing, PbR in community safety, knife crime, acquisitive crime, etc.

76. Peer networks dedicated to specific roles or common bodies – eg Community Safety Managers, Probation, Police, health professionals, CSPs, PCPs, etc. Peer networks dedicated to areas with differing jurisdiction – eg nations

77. Easy to join and leave Self-moderating Both via inbox and online (email to/from ‘whatevernetwork@community-safety.net’) Can upload resources using online site Hierarchy not functional in relationships Flexibility is core focus, based on user-driven options. Network with the right people

78. Matching will occur in the structure – eg on job role, location. Hierarchy not functional in relationships Flexibility is core focus, based on user-driven options. Possible to regenerate.

85. BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2012/13 NCSN TRAINING Mark McCormack (June Armstrong)

86. ©NCSN 2012 Learning and Development with the National Community Safety Network An overview

87. ©NCSN 2012 NCSN activities include promoting effective partnership working and problem solving via the delivery of national training, community safety guidance documentation, regional seminars and consultation events.

88. ©NCSN 2012 We have recently reviewed the work we do in response to a member survey. The most recent additions to the training modules are: Performance Management Collaborative Working and Business Engagement Community Engagement and Neighbourhood Working

89. ©NCSN 2012 Performance management is a process which operates as part of a continuous business planning cycle. In the brave new world of localism and the ‘Big society’, Performance Indicators will be identified and measured by our communities. This short, 1 day, course will help you to:  Understand current performance and identify and prioritise what needs to be done  Plan for improvement, making it clear that performance matters  Join up your thinking, concentrating on the things that matter, finding your own frameworks to help people perform well

90. ©NCSN 2012 Collaborative Working and Business Engagement Businesses work differently to local partnerships and it is important to identify the most practical ways in which you might get them involved. There are benefits to both parties and the modules is therefore also appropriate for the business community. This short, half day, course aims to introduce students to  the basic principles, processes and tools to create effective engagement and collaboration with the business community in order to reduce crime and disorder.

91. ©NCSN 2012 Community engagement and neighbourhood working should include providing community members with the opportunities, skills, abilities and confidence to develop their communities. This short, 1 day, course aims to:  assist practitioners to identify and develop effective communication skill.,  Identify appropriate partnership data and information sources for addressing community problems.  to establish, or improve community engagement policies and strategies in their areas for focussed community safety interventions.

92. ©NCSN 2012 We are also currently in the process of re-developing the Skills for Justice, level 2, development award on Strategic Problem Solving in Community Safety, which we co- produced and piloted, into a set of smaller modules that can be studied in ‘bite size’ chunks allowing for fewer abstraction times for participants.

93. ©NCSN 2012 These courses are offered on a free of charge basis until March 2013 See the flyer in your delegate pack for more information

94. ©NCSN 2012 NCSN also has the capacity to develop bespoke training on specific areas of demand in response to member needs and changes in legislation. We are very keen to hear from you in respect of training areas that you would like to see us provide.

95. BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2012/13 NCSN POLICY BRIEFINGS Grant Ardern (Robert Greaves)

96. NCSN POLICY BRIEFINGS 60 Second Briefings Weekly News Round Ups New Website Introduction to Community Safety, Consultation Horizon Scanning Network News

97. Is it important? Yes! You have told us that you value the 60 Second Briefings, (96% of respondents in the latest survey). NCSN produce two new briefings a week. Keeping you informed of relevant issues.

98. Is it important? Yes! Everyone can contribute to the News Round Ups Tell us what's going on because ‘What goes on goes in’. granta@community-safety.net

99. Is it important? Yes! The new website will provide a much better platform for the briefings. It will allow reader feedback to be collated through use of an online voting button. The voting results will be available to the new Peer Networks and Topic Forums.

100. Is it important? Yes! The new website will contain a research archive for Policy Briefings. The information can then be used to support the development of professional standards and training.

101. Is it important? Yes! A completely new and comprehensively updated ‘Introduction to Community Safety’ is very nearly ready for posting on the NCSN website. It will be updated annually and will provide valuable information for new entrants to Community Safety practice, students and even the experienced professional.

102. Is it important? Yes! Consultation through the Briefings, Website, Peer Networks and Forums, will enable us to promote members views and influence decision making. Future Seminars will also capture emerging trends and concerns. Longer term NCSN will develop position statements on key policy issues, based on consultation with members, particularly through Network News.

103. Is it important? Yes! Influencing Government policy is important to members, and Horizon Scanning is a vital part of this work. Stronger regular two-way contact between NCSN and Home Office policy leads, policymakers and Government departments builds on this, creating an intensive dialogue to promote members views and open wider discussion on the role of community safety within government policy.

106. ©NCSN 2012 Topical Forums An opportunity for practitioners to have a ”FORUM” to voice their opinions

107. ©NCSN 2012 NCSN activities include promoting effective feedback to the Home Office in the form of Topical Forums discussing different themes at Regional Seminars.

108. ©NCSN 2012 Regional Forums previously coordinated by Government Offices and existed in most regions in the UK. They acted as an arena to: Exchange ideas Effective Networking and Feedback Explain new Government Legislation Discuss topical issues

109. ©NCSN 2012 NCSN intentions/aims. To facilitate an arena to debate topical issues To encourage delegates at Regional Seminars to engage in discussion To collate feedback and if required forward to Home Office To inform delegates of up to date information on different themes.

110. ©NCSN 2012 How will NCSN do this? We will use a slot during the Regional Seminars to discuss Topical Themes An NCSN Board Director will chair each session Delegates will be spilt into groups and given three questions to discuss and debate based on the core subject of the Regional Seminar There will be an opportunity to feedback to the whole delegation

111. ©NCSN 2012 Feedback NCSN Staff will collate feedback from the groups based on the three questions posed A written report will be formulated and feedback will be sent to the delegates and Home Office Information and feedback will be posted on NCSN website

112. ©NCSN 2012 We are confident this will be an effective reporting mechanism to the Home Office. Since the disestablishment of Government Offices and Regional Forums there has not been the opportunity for practitioners to feedback issues

113. ©NCSN 2012 These Topical Forums are offered on a free of charge basis until March 2013 Ensure you check the website for further dates of Seminars in a region near you.
