Safer, Stronger Communities Fund
The Safer and Stronger Communities Fund (SSCF) was introduced for all local authorities in England in April 2005.
The Fund brings together Department for Communities and Local Government and Home Office funding streams aimed at tackling crime, anti-social behaviour and drugs, empowering communities, and improving the condition of streets and public spaces; in particular for disadvantaged neighbourhoods where these issues often require more attention. In Salford these neighbourhoods are in Winton and Little Hulton.
The SSCF programme closedown report that was presented to the 22 May SSP Executive is also available.
Many lessons were learnt from SSCF: Read the dos and don'ts from the SSCF programme
Also read our SSCF newsletters: Little Hulton and Winton.
