Building meaningful partnerships between communities and the South African Police Service across the Western Cape — serving 6 districts, 152 stations, and thousands of dedicated volunteers.
The CPF is a community-driven organisation that bridges the gap between residents and law enforcement across the Western Cape.
Driven by dedicated volunteers who give their time and energy to making their communities safer, more connected places to live and work.
All actions and undertakings are concluded in a transparent manner, governed by the SAPS Act and the Western Cape Community Safety Act.
Visible, accessible, and continuously engaged with the communities we serve — present where it matters most, at every station and sub-district.
Dedicated to continuous improvement, monitoring police service delivery and advocating for safer, stronger communities throughout the Western Cape.
The Community Police Forum is guided by five key goals that shape everything we do.
Establish and maintain a partnership between the community and the South African Police Service (SAPS).
Promote communication and cooperation between SAPS and the community to address safety concerns collectively.
Enhance police service delivery across all administrative levels, from station level through to provincial governance.
Promote transparency and accountability of the Service to the community it serves.
Enable joint problem-solving between the police and residents to tackle the root causes of crime and disorder.
