1 Introduction The purpose of this document is to provide data around the issues that have an impact on the safety of Cumbria’s communities. Data cover a range of topics including: crime and disorder; drug and alcohol misuse; fire safety; road safety.
Data have been gathered from local, regional and national sources. Analysis has been undertaken to understand which Cumbrian communities have the greatest need for support to stay safe. The document has been written and produced by Cumbria County Council. Recorded crime data and public concerns for Cumbria have been provided by Cumbria Constabulary.
It should be noted that since April 2018 the way that crimes are recorded by Cumbria Constabulary has changed, and as a result a single crime incident can now result in more than one recorded crime. For example, a single incident involving violence could comprise two notifiable offences against one victim, such as assault and harassment. Prior to April 2018 the harassment would not have been recorded separately. Although it is known that crime incidents have been increasing, changes to recording practices mean that recorded crimes have seen much larger increases in 2018-19. As a result, it is difficult to make direct comparisons between some recorded crime categories in 2018-19 and those in previous years. Recorded crime figures continue to be used in this assessment rather than incident data as they paint a picture of the issues facing Cumbria’s individuals and communities.
Any ward data refers to boundary changes at December 2018.
2 Crime and Community Safety Summary Cumbria is a relatively safe place in which to live, work and visit. In many areas, levels of crime and community safety issues are better than that experienced nationally and / or the North West region. However, there is evidence to suggest that there are some areas of concern in relation to crime and community safety.
Links between crime and deprivation are well documented and have long been understood. Cumbria contains 56 communities (Lower Super Output Areas, (LSOAs)) that rank within the 20% most deprived in England according to the Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2019, with the most deprived community in the county located within Central Ward in Barrow-in-Furness. In total, over half of Cumbria’s 56 most deprived communities (53.6%; 30) are located within the 18 wards identified as being least safe.

The wards which data suggest are least safe are shown below, by district. The number in brackets after the ward name shows the number of communities (LSOAs) within the ward that rank within the 20% most deprived in England.

The group most likely to become victims of all crime are males and females, aged 31 to 60 years. The group most likely to be offenders (all crime) are males, aged 31 to 60 years. Victims of domestic abuse are most likely to be female; the majority of victims are aged 25 to 44 years. Victims of sexual violence are most likely to be female; the majority are aged 0-15 years. Those aged 35 to 49 years are more likely to be referred to Unity with drug and alcohol misuse problems. Males are more likely than females to be referred to Unity with drug and alcohol misuse problems. Under 18s with drug and alcohol misuse problems are more likely to be male. Victims of alcohol related violence against the person offences are most likely to be males and females, aged 31 to 60 years. Offenders of alcohol related violence against the person offences are most likely to be males, aged 31 to 60 years. Cumbrian offenders managed by both the National Probation Service and the Cumbria and Lancashire Community Rehabilitation Company are more likely to be male. Males are more than twice as likely as females to die from alcohol-specific causes. The top five public concerns across Cumbria comprise: drug dealing, anti-social driving behaviour, anti-social behaviour, violent crime, burglary.

4 Crime data, rates and trends Unless stated otherwise, crime data has been provided by Cumbria Constabulary.
4.1 Rates and trends: All crime incidents The table below shows the count of incident logs, recorded at the point of contact. A crime incident can result in one or more crime being recorded (e.g. a single incident involving violence could include two notifiable offences against one victim, such as assault and harassment). Alternatively, there may be no crime recorded if the incident is outside the jurisdiction of Cumbria Constabulary, or there is insufficient information to go onto a record. The number of crime incidents will therefore be less than the number of recorded crimes.

All cases referred to Victim Support will be eligible for an offer of support but not all individuals will take up that offer of support, and despite best efforts Victim Support may not always be able to successfully contact a victim. This is the reason for the difference between the number of cases and the number of people supported. The number of people supported refers to those who have received a service from Victim Support.
Data was previously provided by ‘Let Go’. It is therefore not possible to make a direct comparison between 2018-19 and previous years.

4.14.2 Child Sexual Exploitation According to the Crime Survey for England and Wales (Office for National Statistics, 2019a) new experimental statistics show that the police in England and Wales flagged 60,685 crimes as involving child sexual abuse in 2018-19 and 13,133 as involving Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE). There have been changes to police recording practices and the survey acknowledges that data quality is variable across police forces, although expected to improve over time.
Child Sexual Exploitation in Cumbria is recognised as an area of concern. However, through working with partners it has been determined that Cumbrian data regarding CSE is not accurate enough to include within this assessment for 2018-19 and could be misleading. Further work will be completed in 2020 to provide information in this area. If further information is required in the meantime, Cumbria Constabulary should be contacted directly.
