CRIME-FIGHTING partnerships in South Lakeland, Eden and Furness will receive £61,357 from the Home Office in 2002/03 through the Safer Communities Initiative (SCI) to cut crime.
The money will be used to target police activity, including special operations, tackle repeat victimisation through anti-burglary projects and anti-social behaviour with interventions such as pub watch and approved tenancy schemes.
It will also support programmes for young people and tackle persistent offending.
