'Gloucester City Safe’ and Gloucester city centre in 2019: research conducted by students from the University of Gloucestershire

This report presents an examination of the Business Crime Reduction Partnership (BCRP) ‘Gloucester City Safe’ in 2019. The report’s findings can be used by the Scheme’s management and the police to enhance understanding of crime and disorder in Gloucester and its surrounding areas and to help inform efforts to tackle these issues. It is also intended that Gloucester BID should use the questionnaire findings as an indication of public perception in their areas of activity. The research was carried out by University of Gloucestershire BSc Criminology, BA Sociology, BSc Criminology & Sociology and BSc Professional Policing students in October/November 2019. The University would like to thank Steve Lindsay, the Gloucester City Safe Scheme manager, the Scheme’s members and the various other stakeholders that supported this project for giving the students this opportunity.
