Supported by Bedford Borough Council
Since its early days, Bedford Street Angels has had the support of Bedford Borough Council. BSA is involved with the Bed:Safe Steering Committee and Borough Council Community Safety.
Bed:Safe is an initiative Bedford Borough Council, other local agencies and Night Club owners that seeks to keep the town centre safe for people using the pubs and clubs at night. Street Angels keep in touch with police, door supervisors and taxi marshalls as we walk around the streets.
Supporting Bedfordshire Police
Street Angels keep in touch with police through the use of the Nite Net radio system. We work closely with the Night Time Economy and Licencing Officers, Community Engagement Officer and Police Intelligence.
Supported by Churches
The Bedford Street Angels project is supported by the following Church organisations:
