Lewes District Crime Reduction Partnership (CRP)
Lewes District CRP was formed as a response
to the Crime and Disorder Act 1998, which recognised that the
Police alone cannot be responsible for reducing crime. It is only
by a wide range of agencies working together to develop and implement
local solutions to local problems that we can bring about lasting
reductions in crime. Your local CRP consists of:
Sussex Police
Lewes District Council
East Sussex County Council
Drug & Alcohol Action Team
Sussex Police Authority
East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service
East Sussex Fire Authority
Primary Care Trusts
However, the membership of the CRP is far wider
than its statutory partners, including many voluntary and community
organisations operating in the District. The partnership receives
yearly grants from the Home Office which are targeted to reduce
crime and improve the safety of our local communities using a
partnership approach.

East Sussex Learning
Partnership
East Sussex Learning Partnership is a company
limited by guarantee. The directors of the Partnership are a group
of stakeholders who represent sectors within Sussex Learning and
Skills Councils (SLSC) Planning Areas E & F. The concept of
Learning Partnerships stems from a joint commitment by central
government and the representative bodies of the local government,
further education, work-based training, adult and community learning
and youth support sectors to the establishment of a single strategic
body in each area bringing together all existing local partnership
arrangements covering post-16 and lifelong learning.
