COMMUNITY groups across the West Midlands are being reminded that the deadline to apply for a share of £330,000 is tomorrow.
The cash has been allocated by police and crime commissioner Simon Foster to help make the community safer.
PCC Simon’s My Community Fund is allocated to local groups to help them prevent and reduce crime in the local community.
The cash is made up of money seized by police from criminals under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 and applications for the funding closes on Friday September 13.
All funded projects will contribute to crime prevention and reduction, and community safety in the local area.
PCC Simon said: “The purpose of the My Community Fund is to encourage local people to bring forward ideas, which reflect their local knowledge and understanding of how best to prevent and reduce crime and improve community safety.
“The money for the fund comes from cash that police have seized from criminals under the Proceeds of Crime Act, and it will be prioritised for locally based projects, which aim to make a positive difference in dealing with crime prevention and reduction and that importantly show a clear link to my Police and Crime Plan.”
