Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown Local Community Safety Partnership
The dlr Local Community Safety Partnership (LCSP) is a newly established initiative aimed at enhancing community safety across Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown by placing local voices at the heart of decision-making. The partnership brings together a diverse range of stakeholders including local councillors, An Garda Síochána, community groups, businesses, educators, and statutory agencies such as the HSE, Tusla, and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council.
The dlr LCSP’s mission is to collaboratively address safety concerns identified by residents, ensuring that responses are coordinated and inclusive. Each LCSP is tasked with developing a tailored Local Community Safety Plan, designed to reflect the unique needs and priorities of the area.
Membership & Representation
Membership is capped at 30 individuals, nominated through their organisations or the dlr Public Participation Network (PPN). The partnership includes:
-
7 County Councillors
-
Senior Gardaí
-
Representatives from Tusla, HSE, and the County Council
-
Residents’ association members
-
Voices from education, business, youth, sport, social inclusion, and minority communities
A Collaborative Approach
The dlr LCSP operates on two key principles:
-
Every community has distinct safety concerns.
-
Addressing these concerns requires a multi-agency approach—not just policing, but also health, social services, and community support.
Get Involved
Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council is inviting expressions of interest from individuals and organisations passionate about making the county safer and more inclusive. Applications are welcome from residents’ associations, youth groups, educators, sports organisations, minority communities, and voluntary bodies.
Closing date for applications: 20th October 2025
The dlr LCSP is part of a national framework established under the Policing, Security and Community Safety Act 2024 and its associated regulations (S.I. No. 279/2025).
