Round 4 (running across the 2022/23 and 23/24 financial years and worth £75 million) of the Safer Streets Fund will fund initiatives that will combine and expand previous focuses of the Safer Streets Fund and SWaN Fund through targeting neighbourhood crime, VAWG and anti-social behaviour, in areas across England and Wales disproportionately and persistently impacted by these crime types/issues.

The main aims of the fund are to:

• reduce neighbourhood crime: domestic burglary, robbery, theft from person, vehicle crime
• reduce anti-social behaviour
• reduce VAWG in public spaces (including the night-time economy)
• increase feelings of safety from VAWG and ASB in public places
• a combination of the above

The fund will be open to:

• Police and Crime Commissioners
• Local authorities
• The British Transport Police
• Eligible Civil Society Organisations

The guidance for bidders covers:

• bidder eligibility
