Update provided by Humberside Police about a new funding opportunity for groups\/organisations able to create projects tackling Serious & Organised Crime (SOC).<\/strong><\/p>\n

North East Lincolnshire has been selected as a pilot site of a national Home Office project to tackle the community impacts of Serious & Organised Crime (SOC). I am pleased to announce that the Home Office have secured funding for a second year of the pilot to run up until 31st<\/sup> March 2021.<\/p>\n

I am now in a position to welcome applications to support local interventions to tackle the threat posed by organised crime groups.<\/p>\n

There were numerous successes and lessons learned from year 1 and I am keen to develop, expand and maximise the collective response to tackle the criminal gangs that cause harm in our communities.<\/p>\n

I am seeking passionate individuals, groups, charities and businesses to join the response to make North East Lincolnshire safer and create a more hostile environment for organised criminals to operate.<\/p>\n

My role is to jointly offer financial support to interventions created to tackle the threat, but also to bring groups together to work in synergy creating a \u2018Whole Systems Approach\u2019.<\/p>\n

Funding bids up to a maximum of \u00a335,000 <\/u>are now welcomed.
\n<\/strong>The deadline for bids to be returned is Friday 3rd<\/sup> July 1200hrs.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Please return completed funding bids to<\/strong> Steven.Peck@humberside.pnn.police.uk<\/a><\/p>\n

No funding from this pilot can be utilised beyond 31st<\/sup> March 2021.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

A copy of the national SOC strategy can be found here:
\nhttps:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/serious-and-organised-crime-strategy-2018<\/a><\/p>\n

I am available and willing to speak to any interested party before the deadline. Please email me with your availability and I will arrange a suitable date\/time for phone call.<\/p>\n

In order to assist applicants I have the following points:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Please look at the UK SOC strategy, the Theory of Change Model and the Humberside Police Plan on a Page documents attached to identify where your intervention fits in and make specific reference to key points where you can.<\/li>\n
  2. I see the threat as a timeline, point \u20180\u2019 being when the individual starts to offend. At what point does your intervention plan to make a difference?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Is your intervention education, incentivised engagement with services or diversionary i.e. an employability program?<\/p>\n
