DORSET Police is reminding residents of their Safer Dorset fund created to support local voluntary groups to deliver projects that make Dorset safer.

The Community Grant has been established as a funding source for voluntary and community sector organisations to deliver projects that meet one or more of the Police and Crime Plan priorities.

Grants of between £50 and £3,000 are available, and applicants must show how they will contribute to making Dorset a safer place to live in, work in and visit.

The main purpose of the Community Grant is to provide funding to enable innovative projects to get started that make a positive difference to Dorset’s communities.
