Community Response Fund

Results have been announced for projects to receive funding from our Community Response Fund.

The Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) Jonathan Evison recently announced a second round of funding to target crime and community safety at a local level by directly responding to issues identified by the public that are affecting their neighbourhoods and local areas.

The PCC’s Community Response Fund (CRF) is a project which responds directly to the issues that the public have identified via Humber Talking, the engagement tool used by the PCC and Humberside Police which asks residents key questions about the issues that affect their community, for example, road safety, criminal damage, drug dealing and anti-social behaviour. 

Following a pilot earlier this year which funded projects in Bridlington and Winterton, this new round focusses on three specific local areas, and will provide funding for projects that seek to address a key issue identified by residents that is impacting on their neighbourhoods.

The Fund will provide up to £10,000 in each area to fund a project to address Anti-social Behaviour:

  • Longhill and Bilton Grange, Hull
  • Withernsea, East Riding of Yorkshire
  • Immingham, North East Lincolnshire

Anti-social Behaviour in Longhill and Bilton Grange, Hull

The Neighbourhood Policing Team have focused on a multi-agency approach to tackle anti-social behaviour within the community. Their priority is to utilise this partnership with Hull City Council and Humberside Fire and Rescue Services to ensure that our communities do not have to tolerate unacceptable behaviour of any kind.  The Neighbourhood Nuisance Team regularly receive calls for service, with particular issues around Alderman Kneeshaw Park, Eastmount and Frome Road. 

Two projects were shortlisted for funding and the winner was selected by a public vote. Click here to read about the projects and find out who won the vote.
