LGBT Community Safety Forum
An independent LGBT forum working with the Community to address and improve safety issues throughout Brighton and Hove. They support cultural, educational and social safety community activities and any type of LGBT community-building initiative. The LGBT Community Safety Forum was formed to give the community a much needed voice on a wide range of safety issues in Brighton and Hove. We exist to act as a bridge between the community and statutory services such as the City Council and Sussex Police and to enable there to be more accountability and transparency of the services provided. Its very much a forum where members of the public can have their say and can ask direct questions to those in charge of community safety in the city. The forum is there to question, to get answers, to probe further and to insist on improvements on service delivery.
