Bristol's Scene; Working Together
_______________________________________________________
The Scheme
The sharing of information between venues, Police, City Council and support groups aims to improve the reporting of incidents and ensure those responsible are prosecuted. Through promotion and advertising, this scheme will act as a deterrent for those who may commit disorder, with a means to prevent those of the highest disorder from entering venues.
The scheme aims to make Bristol a safer place, to support victims and to assist those who need help dealing with personal issues like anger management and drink and drug addictions.
Already the channels of communication between the venues and Police have progressed significantly resulting in better understanding of the community whilst opening doors to further progress.
