Community Safety Forum

About

Each October, we partner with Victoria Police to host the Banyule and Nillumbik Community Safety Forum.

This annual event brings residents together to learn more about local safety issues, hear directly from Victoria Police about crime trends and community safety priorities, and explore the programs, initiatives and services that support safe and connected communities.

Whether you have questions, concerns, ideas or simply want to stay informed, the forum provides a welcoming and accessible opportunity to join the conversation, connect with local services and learn how we can work together to create safer neighbourhoods across Banyule and Nillumbik.

Join us on the evening and receive a free Community Safety Pack to take home.
