Safer in Sussex Community Fund

To qualify for support from the Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner's Safer in Sussex Community Fund (SiSCF), we would need to offer a project to reduce crime &/or improve community safety in Round Hill. This might be something akin to a Neighbourhood Watch.

The advantage of Neighbourhood Watch is that groups around the UK have applied themselves to finding solutions for many concerns which we share in Round Hill. See table (below)

Antisocial behaviour   Elder abuse
Bicycle theft   Hate crime & incidents
Burglary   Password protection
Car crime   Rural crime
Child sexual exploitation   Scams
Dog theft   Serious violence
Domestic abuse   Terrorism
