The Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) is pleased to announce the launch of Round 7 of the Community Safety Fund (CSF).
This round is focused on the purchase of and / or installation of equipment and / or assets which will support the reduction in crime and improvement in community safety which will be completed by 31 March 2026.
The CSF can provide funding of between £500 and £35,000 towards projects that meet the scheme criteria and are led by voluntary and community sector organisations, social enterprises or town and parish councils.
The following types of projects / activities are likely to be “in scope” for this round of the Fund:
- Purchase of equipment / assets which facilitate activities that will:
- divert people from crime or antisocial behaviour taking place in the local area
- support people who may be particularly at risk of becoming victims of crime, or have previously been victims of crime
- Measures / minor capital work to improve the security of community buildings or assets e.g. security measures, fencing, CCTV, alarm systems etc (this should not include improvements that are a key part of ongoing property maintenance)
- Measures to improve the safety of outdoor public spaces e.g. CCTV installation, fencing etc
This round of the fund is not designed to fund ongoing revenue-based activities – it is an enabling fund to support the purchase of equipment / assets which can support such activities and for the provision of enhanced security measures for community buildings, assets and outdoor spaces.
