Partnerships

Derbyshire Constabulary has many years of experience working in the community and managing partnership arrangements. Multi-agency groups exist across the county working hard to reduce crime and make Derbyshire an even safer place.

The Crime and Disorder Act 1998 imposes a legal requirement on local authorities, the police and other key agencies to work together at district level to develop and implement strategies for reducing crime and disorder.

This web page gives you access to just some examples of our work with external partners.

Derbyshire Criminal Justice Board (DCJB)

The Derbyshire Criminal Justice Board is one of 42 boards set up across England and Wales.

It responds to government initiatives to transform the way the criminal justice system works to catch, convict and rehabilitate criminals.
Also, it plays a vital role in the fight to reduce crime and bring more offences to justice. Members of the DCJB include Chief Officers from Derbyshire Constabulary and other justice agencies.
