Community Safety Fund

The PCC’s Community Safety Fund offers grants towards the costs of community safety and crime reduction projects across the Humber area.  It is designed to support community organisations to kick-start local projects that will cut crime and antisocial behaviour and improve feelings of safety.

The Fund can provide funding of between £500 and £35,000 towards projects that meet the scheme criteria.  A total of £1.5m has been allocated to the Fund between 2022/23 and 2024/25.

Here is PCC Jonathan Evison describing the fund and visiting one of our successful projects.
