Apart from a financial contribution, there are a variety of ways that you and your organisation could show this much needed support and it may be that you have other ideas that we could explore together. Flexibility, creativity, visibility and outcomes which benefit our shared community are just some of the advantages of partnering with a local company.

Breaking Down Barriers has been awarded a grant from the Police & Crime Commissioner’s Safer in Sussex Community Fund.
Katy Bourne the Police & Crime Commissioner joined Barbara Rowe on Monday 29th June to present the grant award and explain how the funding will help improve community safety in Sussex.
Commenting on the funding award Barbara Rowe said: “We are delighted to have been awarded this grant from the Safer in Sussex Community Fund, which will help to fund a mentoring program that will enable the young people taking part to develop their self-esteem and resilience to their full potential. Through this programme they will enhance their life chances and opportunities by building confidence and raising aspirations helping to improve their quality of life.”
Commending breaking Down Barriers on its successful bid Mrs Bourne said: “The Sussex Adolescent Mentoring Service (SAMS) is a great example of an innovative local project that aims to make our community safer.”
Since the Community Fund launched in December 2013 over 100 projects have been supported and over £500,000 made available to local crime reduction and community safety initiatives. “I am delighted with the response the Fund has received, which tells me local organisations and community groups care about – and are committed to – helping keep Sussex safe.”
“I look forward to visiting the team at Breaking Down Barriers and following the progress of their project over the coming months.”
