Community Action Against Crime

The Community Action Against Crime: Innovation Fund (CAAC:IF) encourages voluntary and community groups to work with their community safety partnership to tackle local crime problems.

Please note: the CAAC:IF is currently closed. We will announce the next round as soon as we have the dates.

Pathways administers applications from community and voluntary groups in Ealing, working in partnership with the Community Development Foundation.

The fund, which was created by the Home Office, is designed to encourage creative new approaches to tackling crime. In particular they are keen to receive more applications from grassroots organisations applying for small grants, particularly those addressing the themes of violence against women and youth crime.

The Community Action Against Crime: Innovation fund will encourage effective partnerships to get everybody working together to tackle crime, including through co-design and co-delivery of initiatives to cut crime.

Applications from grassroots community activists who are not traditional recipients of government grants are encouraged.
