Introduction

The Kincardine & Mearns Community Safety Group is seeking applications from local community groups for the funding of community safety projects in the Kincardine & Mearns area. The Group's priority themes and those for which funding is most likely to be granted are:

• Addressing antisocial behaviour such as drunkenness, disorder, antisocial driving, etc.
• Reducing community safety problems arising from substance/alcohol misuse.
• Reducing vandalism.
• Increasing road safety in particular for the 17-25 year age group.

Projects which cover other safety issues which have been identified in a community, for example home safety and water safety, may be considered.

The minimum project cost is £100 and the maximum is £1000.
