From Strategy to Street: Turning Community Safety Plans into Action
Helping councils meet statutory duties through smart, scalable local solutions.
imabi Connect translates multi-agency priorities into measurable community outcomes.
Embedded within Travel Guardian, this initiative enables councils to map Safe Spaces and other key local assets, share trusted information, collect actionable reports and demonstrate delivery against statutory duties — bridging the gap between policy intent and on-the-ground impact, and building safer, more confident communities.
Delivering Local Impact Through the Connect Initiative
Through the Connect initiative, councils are bringing their community safety priorities to life: aligning statutory duties with local delivery and visible reassurance.
Embedded within Travel Guardian, Connect helps councils share trusted information with their communities, map Safe Spaces and other local assets, provide clear and anonymous reporting routes, capture local feedback and engagement, and evidence delivery across towns and districts.
Night-Time Economy Safer Nights Use-Case
Many councils working towards or maintaining Purple Flag status want stronger public reassurance and better evidence after dark. In this example, a council could use the Connect initiative within Travel Guardian to support its Night-Time Economy plan.
Through Connect, the council could:
Create a mapped “Safer Nights” area in Travel Guardian showing Safe Spaces, taxi ranks, late-night toilets, defibrillators and other community assets.
Share trusted information on drink spiking, active bystander tips, personal safety and getting home safely.
Promote responsible venue schemes (e.g., Ask for Angela, Safer Streets activity) to highlight partnership standards.
Provide clear, anonymous reporting routes for nuisance driving, noise and street-based ASB, with automatic map-tagging for hotspot tasking.
Run quick “Feeling safe tonight?” pulse polls to capture perceptions and feedback from residents, workers and visitors.
Publish real-time reassurance updates from policing, licensing and community safety partners.
Enable Travel Guardian’s free geo-location features for the public — including Share My Journey (live journey sharing with trusted contacts) and Rescue Me (location-aware emergency prompts) — to support safer routes home.
Evidence delivery using engagement metrics, poll results and hotspot insights for Purple Flag submissions and partnership reviews.
Used this way, the Connect initiative links Night-Time Economy priorities with practical tools, trusted information and demonstrable outcomes councils can stand behind.
