Safe Communities

The City of Canning is committed to collaboratively working towards a connected and safe community for all.

The Safe Canning Strategy provides the guiding structure to support the implementation of initiatives and programs that enhance community safety. This is achieved through the delivery of the Implementation Action Plan (The Plan).

The Plan and its ongoing review comprises several key steps, which together form the Safe Canning Strategy Cycle as shown below.

The setting of priority actions is determined through ongoing consultation with our community and key stakeholders regarding perceptions of safety. Consideration to factors such as changes to local crime trends, demographic and census data will also influence actions.

The current Implementation Action Plan can be viewed here.
