Safer Harlow Partnership Awards 2007

Partnership encourages people to nominate individuals and projects for local awards

 

The Safer Harlow Partnership is looking for outstanding individuals and organisations that have made a difference in making Harlow a safer place.

 

The Partnership is encouraging local people and groups in the town to nominate an individual or an organisation for its annual Safer Harlow Awards.

 

There are a number of categories that all require someone to have made a special effort or gone the extra mile to make the town or their area safer. For those selected as winners there will be a presentation ceremony at the Civic Centre later this year with each winner receiving an award and certificate.

 

Nominations can be made by calling Terry Curtis on 01279 446186, emailing terry.curtis@harlow.gov.uk or online.  The closing date for nominations is 28th September 2007.  The awards ceremony will be held later in the year.

    

The Categories selected for nomination are:-

 

  • An individual who has shown outstanding enthusiasm and commitment to making people feel safer in Harlow.

 

  • An individual who has demonstrated and outstanding ability to support a victim/s of crime.

 

  • An individual who has taken real steps to help tackle crime in Harlow either by their own actions of by leading a group.

 

  • A project that has demonstrated real innovation in tackling crime in Harlow, either by prevention or detection.

 

  • A project that has taken innovative steps to improve the environment in a way which deters crime and enables people to feel safer.

 

  • A school which has demonstrated real innovation and/or commitment to using education to encourage pupils to understand their rights and responsibilities.

 

The awards are being administered by Harlow Council, one of the organisations which sit on the Safer Harlow Partnership.

 

Councillor Tony Durcan, Joint Leader of the Council, says: “Various projects in Harlow to tackle crime and disorder have been achieved, not just by the Council or its partners, but also by local people and smaller organisations taking the lead. Those who have gone out their way to make Harlow a safer place deserve recognition and these awards are about doing just that. “

 

Councillor Chris Millington, Joint Leader of the Council, says: “These awards are about promoting the fact we can all do something to make the town a better place. If you know someone in your street or any organisation that has made a stand in the community then let us know so they can be rewarded.”
