Over £150,000 worth of funding was made accessible for community groups and voluntary sector organisations within County Durham and Darlington this year, through the Community Safety Fund.
The Office of the Durham Police, Crime and Victims’ Commissioner, in partnership with County Durham Community Foundation, launched the applications for funding back in August 2020.
Funding was available for projects and initiatives, which help to keep communities safe and contribute towards inspiring public confidence. Many organisations have faced unprecedented challenges as they adapted and changed how they delivered their vital services during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Here are all the organisations that have benefited from the funding in 2020.
