Safer Communities Fund

The Safer Communities Fund is a Crown fund that provides communities at risk from hate crimes and terrorism with funding to upgrade or implement security arrangements. The fund helps create safe and secure environments for communities to practise their faith, congregate, and maintain community networks. Projects must demonstrate how they will reduce the threat and impact of future hate crimes and terrorism against the community. Security upgrades must be suitable for the level of risk faced, appropriate in size and scale to meet community needs, and fit-for-purpose.
