This fund has been developed to reinvest the value of proceeds of crime seized by the Criminal Assets Bureau directly back into communities via projects that support and improve community safety.
€3.75 million in funding is available for local initiatives.
The funding call is open from 30 May to 26 July 2024.
The Community Safety Fund
• allows proceeds of crime to be directed into community projects to support community safety;
• encourages the development of projects aimed at improving community safety from the people who best understand local community safety needs;
• allows best practice on community safety and youth justice to be shared with other partnerships and communities nationally as new proposals are developed.
