Community Policing - Harnessing The Power of Community Intelligence.

The Universities’ Police Science Institute are conducting an ongoing programme of research to explore the application of community intelligence in the policing of priority areas across South Wales.

The intelligence-led Neighbourhood Security Interview methodology (iNSI) is a well-established exercise within the South Wales Police Force which has received recognition at a national level. It captures the low level Signal Crimes that have a disproportionate impact on wellbeing of communities in the region.

This in turn provides a more focussed view of communities, the issues they experience and the impact it has on their perceptions and behaviours.
