The Wales Safer Communities Network has published ‘Making Wales Safer Together’, its new strategic plan for 2025-2030. The plan, which sets out a clear and collaborative vision for making communities across Wales safer, is the result of extensive engagement and reflection, and it marks a significant step forward in articulating the Network’s purpose, values, and priorities.
At its heart, the strategic plan is a call to action. It invites practitioners, partners, and decision-makers to see the Network not just as a resource, but as a platform for shaping the future of community safety in Wales. It outlines how the Network supports practitioners—by connecting them with peers, amplifying their voices, and offering a shared framework for action. It also highlights the evidence-based impact of the Network’s work and its alignment with national priorities.
The plan sets out how the Wales Safer Communities Network works to support practitioners across Wales, explaining the Network’s role as a collaborative platform. The Network brings together professionals from policing, fire services, local authorities, and community organisations to share learning, shape priorities, and strengthen delivery. The plan outlines the Network’s mission, values, and strategic direction helping practitioners understand how they can engage with the Network, access support, and contribute to shaping safer communities. It’s designed to be a practical resource that reinforces the value of partnership and provides a shared framework for action.
The Network hopes that this plan will deepen understanding of its role and encourage wider engagement. Whether you’re a policy maker, a frontline practitioner, or a strategic leader, this strategic plan is an opportunity to connect, contribute, and help build a safer Wales.
