Message from the Mayor John Gilligan The community coordinators, through their various initiatives and activities, continue to promote community safety within Limerick city. I am delighted that the scheme is continuing into its third year as in the last two years the scheme has made great strides in their assigned areas as well as expanding into Ballynanty. I am also delighted that this year they are carrying out an assessment into the possibility of expanding into Kings Island. I have seen first hand the effort the coordinators have made in promoting community spirit and I wish the community coordinators all the best in the coming year and encourage them to continue with their policy of promoting positive community action in the media. Message from Tom Mackey, City Manager, Limerick City Council The Limerick City Community Safety Partnership was set up in 2006 to provide a new approach in tackling low level anti-social behavior in communities. It is a partnership between Limerick City Council, An Garda Síochána and the Health Services Executive. Reviews of the interim report by the evaluator indicate a huge success on the ground by the team over the first 18 months of the pilot and I am delighted for those communities supported by the scheme that it is being extended for a third year (2009-2010). It is important to recognise the valuable contribution made by the team in the communities involved and the benefits that a coordinated approach to service delivery between agencies can deliver, particularly in the current economic climate. Limerick City Council is proud to be part of this innovative scheme and we hope that the scheme will continue to serve the needs of the communities in the years ahead. Message from Kieran Lehane, Secretary of the Board, LCCSP I am very proud to be associated with the work the community coordinators have carried out during the first two years of this pilot scheme and it is due to the hard work, integrity and diligence of the team that we see this scheme expanding into it's third year. The inclusion of projects initiated by the community coordinators in local media has promoted a positive image of Limerick city, helping to restore pride within local communities. The educational aspect and preventative nature of these projects are the key elements in creating lasting change for the future. The team are currently conducting a feasibility study into the further expansion of the scheme into Kings Island. I look forward to seeing the results of this study, and to offering my support throughout the year ahead. TWO COMMUNITY COORDINATOR NEWSLETTER 2008/2009
