Voluntary and community safety groups are being urged to apply for grants as part of Essex’s Community Safety Development Fund.
The £150,000 fund offers grants of up to £20,000 for community projects that help to prevent and tackle crime and anti-social behaviour in Essex, and support vulnerable people.
Applications must demonstrate that they will make a positive impact on at least one of the Police and Crime Plan or Fire and Rescue Plan priorities.
These plans are available to view on www.essex.pfcc.police.uk.
A panel of independent local representatives assesses the bids. They ensure the projects reflect community priorities, work with other existing commissioned or grant-funded activity and provide good value for money for the taxpayer.
