Community Safety Warden
The Position Limerick City and County Council invites applications from suitably qualified persons, who wish to be considered for inclusion on a panel from which temporary vacancies for Local Community Safety Partnership Community Safety Warden may be filled throughout the lifetime of the panel. The establishment of a Community Safety Warden Scheme in Limerick City & County Council is an innovative proposal to support uniformed Gardaí with a high visibility presence of Community Safety Wardens. The intention is that these community champions will be the conduit in facilitating safer communities by ensuring that everyone feels safe as their visible presence deters crime and supports the creation of a safe and resilient City Centre community. Our wardens will not replace Gardaí, but by building relationships between the community stakeholders, visitors to our City will see increased vibrancy and reduced anti-social behaviour. The scope of the Community Safety Wardens will be to provide a visible presence, foster communication with stakeholders and signposting of relevant services to the community. This Scheme will promote community, business, State agency and voluntary sector engagement on safety and to reimagine a pro social space that is safe for all users of the space. The Wardens have no enforcement capacity and will report any criminal activity observed to An Garda Síochána and keep a record of the report and the response time. The scheme will establish effective grassroots communication with state and community services, including detached youth workers, An Garda Siochána, local drug and alcohol programmes and Limerick City & County Council in its management. This will allow for effective and time critical management of community relevant safety issues as they arise. The aim of the Community Safety Wardens scheme is to contribute to a reduction in negative community incidents, crime and the fear of crime by reassuring residents and visitors to Limerick, initially through their highly visible presence but also through a proactive approach in managing issues that traditionally give rise to anti community activity, leading to a perception of being unsafe or engaging with other staff and agencies with the relevant skills to deal with the issues that may present. The Local Community Safety Partnership brings together statutory services, the voluntary and community sector, the Mayor of Limerick, local Councillors, local government officials and community members to work together to identify and tackle community safety issues locally. The Community Safety Warden may be required to support and attend stakeholders' events and support Local environment events/groups and promote and work with community groups to ensure Community safety is promoted and facilitated. Community safety is a broad concept that goes beyond just policing and crime. It is about people being and feeling safe in their communities, and it includes everything from visible Gardaí to safe places for children to play. Community safety needs a multi-agency approach, where services work together to deliver on the needs of individual communities.
