Minutes of the Meeting of Lewes Town Partnership Lewes Police Station, moved from 66 High St, Lewes as no-one had access and Paul Rideout was not present. There was some disquiet about this and more notice needed to be given about change of venue 20th June, 2005
Apologies later received: Ruth O'Keeffe Due to the low turnout the meeting focussed on Crime Reduction – Local Action Team There was some discussion about how the aims of the LAT wwere/wouold be set and how the LAT would relate to Lewes Town Partnership. LTP had already identified the need to support people suffering from domestic abuse and that this had not been identified as a priority by the LAT. The LAT was asked to reconsider this.
