Operational Context

• Key Agencies in England
• Partners in England

Partners in England

Our active partners include Help the Aged and Age Concern (shortly to merge), Care & Repair, Housing Associations, Victim Support and local charities such as Help & Care Bournemouth.

• Victim Support.  We are delivering a scheme in Victim Support's South West regions that provides a home security service to (mainly) victims of burglary.
• Help the Aged & Age Concern operate handyperson and home security services for elderly people. 
• Care & Repair consists of a National organisation, which acts as a central network and local branches, which operate their own projects.  They are primarily a repair and maintenance agency but also provide home security and work with Local Authorities on crime prevention work.
• Housing Associations often provide a handyman service to their residents and even to other local persons in need, in particular in urban areas. 
• Various local charities e.g. Help & Care Bournemouth operate home maintenance projects.  These also provide a home security service as they are often funded by Local Authorities who consider this as part of their responsibility under the Crime and Disorder Act.
