Projects to receive £110k with SWAP
The Chester Chronicle
|May 01, 2025
THIRTY community projects across the county are to benefit from more than £110k cash awarded from Dan Price, Cheshire Police and Crime Commissioner's (PCC), SWAP Fund.
-
Projects range from substance misuse educational programmes and support to those in the probation service to youth clubs, sporting activities and aids to help deter crime in the nighttime economy.
The £200,000 funding pot is money that has been seized or recuperated from criminals under the Proceeds of Crime Act.
To be successful, projects had to demonstrate they could fulfil one or more of Dan Price's priorities which include improving community safety, supporting victims, providing early intervention programmes and reducing reoffending.
Two amounts were available, an express grant of £1,000 which gave a decision within two weeks of application and a main grant of £5,000.
