Seniors Plan 2007 - City of Stirling - The Western Australian ...

Strategy 2 – Develop procedures and partnerships to enhance the personal
security of residents.
If people feel that they live in a safe environment they are much more likely to go out, both for
exercise and to participate in community activities. By doing so they build a social network and
maintain their fitness, which reduces the possibility of their becoming a victim of crime.
