PCC Launches Police Property Act Fund
Kent’s Police and Crime Commissioner Matthew Scott is pleased to announce that applications for the Police Property Act Fund are now open.
The fund aims to keep communities safe, protect young and vulnerable people and reduce anti-social behaviour. This is done through supporting local projects conducted by charitable or voluntary organisations.
The fund is generated from the sale, at auction, of items seized in police operations that cannot be reclaimed. The funds generated are then used to support Registered Charities, Social Enterprise, Constituted Groups or Community Interest Companies (CICs).
Organisations who have a clear connection to Kent and undertake work that benefits the local community and promote safety and wellbeing are invited to apply for funding to support their projects.
Matthew Scott says:
“Cutting crime, supporting victims and building trust is at the core of everything we do. It is my hope that this fund will achieve all three of these goals by empowering local organisations to deliver meaningful projects that will impact people’s lives, strengthen communities and make Kent safer.
I have seen fantastic work done by many charity or voluntary organisations in the past and we know how big of an impact these can have on people. I look forward to supporting these organisations further and am excited to see the real-world impact they are going to make in Kent.”
