The Compendium of Crime Prevention and Reduction in the Planning System

‘The Compendium of Crime Prevention and Reduction in the Planning System’ aims to assist all those involved in the planning system to make sure that designing out crime is part of the process.

The Compendium is divided into an introduction booklet, and five other booklets highlighting the definitions of crime, primary and supporting planning policy, designing out crime and crime prevention advice. All to make sure that built environments are as safe as possible and places where people want to live, work and play.

It comes in a boxed set, priced at £25.00 plus postage. You are free to copy and paste sections from booklets 1, 3, 4 and 5 to assist you in your profession.
