Safer Together

Being safer together in Queensland

The Queensland Police Service (QPS) is committed to providing a safe place for Queensland residents to live, work and play. As part of this commitment, QPS is delivering place-based crime prevention and community safety activities that respond to community needs and priorities.

The Safer Together initiative aims to actively reduce fear of crime and increase feelings of safety in Queensland communities through activities such as raising awareness and providing education in effective ways to:

• reduce home break-ins and vehicle theft,
• enhance neighbourhood connections, and
• build relationships between the QPS and the local community.

As part of the Safer Together initiative, QPS is working with communities to understand local needs and priorities and build partnerships with local organisations to enhance reach and impact. Progress is monitored through community surveys.

Residents are invited to participate in crime and safety workshops, engage with high-visibility policing, and access valuable crime prevention resources. For example, a new community safety campaign sharing insights into how opportunistic thieves operate, and everyday ways people can help protect their property and be safer together.
