Partners tackle city centre crime for SaBA week

In October, we held two days of action in the city for the national Safer Business Action Week (SaBA) which brought local partners together to deter crime and anti-social behaviour in the city. We are #SOproud of our GO! Southampton security team who, along with Hampshire Constabulary, Homeless Outreach Workers, Council Welfare Wardens and other local partners, were able to displace anti-social behaviour across the two days.

Amongst other significant work, the Police arrested one of the city’s high-harm offenders who was later remanded to prison to be sentenced on a guilty plea.

These days of action demonstrate how citywide partners can work together to tackle issues of crime and safety in the city centre.
