Safety Net Associates invited to brief Minister on Gangs, Guns and Knives
The National Community Forum (NCF) is a group of residents and professionals - from some of England's most deprived communities. The NCF brings community voices into Government. It acts as a valuable sounding board for Ministers and civil servants, providing them with a grass roots perspective on policies aimed at narrowing the gap between deprived areas and the rest of the country.
It has three overarching aims:
- to give communities a voice that makes a difference
- to promote equality, diversity and cohesion within communities
- to highlight the impacts of poverty
Safety Net Associates have been invited by the NCF to help them advise the Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Communities and Local Government, Baroness Andrews on matters relating to Guns, Gangs and Knives.
