Description
Origins of the Thames Valley Partnership The Thames Valley Partnership was formed in 1993, at the instigation of Charles (now Sir Charles) Pollard, the Chief Constable of the Thames Valley Police. Its original purpose was to co-ordinate and stimulate the local services' responses to crime and their efforts to promote community safety. The need for local as well as national co-ordination had become clear from the attempts which had been made during the 1980s to manage the criminal justice system as a whole and to develop inter-agency, community-based programmes to reduce crime and increase public confidence. Much of the effort, then as now, was directed towards more effective management of the criminal justice system itself--police, prosecution, courts, prisons and probation and the interactions between them. But preventive work and the importance of partnerships with services outside the criminal justice system, such as health and education, began to receive increasing attention. Examples included the formation of the new national voluntary organisation Crime Concern, the 'Safer Cities' programmes in certain large towns, and in the Morgan report on Safer Communities (Morgan, 1991), published in 1991 although its recommendations were not fully acted upon until the Crime and Disorder Act, 1998 (Faulkner, 2006).
