Home Office Crime Reduction Teams

Home Office Crime Reduction Teams are co-located with the Government Offices for the Regions. A team is also based in the National Assembly for Wales (separate arrangements exist for Scotland and Northern Ireland). Each team is responsible for encouraging and supporting the take-up of initiatives as well as monitoring and the implementation of local projects established under the Crime Reduction Programme.
