Deputy PCC Dr. Fatima Eltinay recently attended a gathering at Police Headquarters in Ripley to meet organisations supported through the Safer and Stronger Communities Fund and to hear about the progress of their community projects.
The fund provides grants of up to £5,000 to non profit organisations, charities and voluntary groups, giving locally based organisations the resources they need to respond to the challenges facing their own communities. 💷
Submissions were received from across every local authority area in Derbyshire, with 30 successful projects chosen to focus on preventing harm and improving safety — including work to address anti social behaviour, substance misuse, domestic abuse and serious violence.
👏 The event offered a chance to recognise the dedication of those delivering this work on the ground and to reflect on the positive difference this funding is helping to create across the city and county.
