Description

The Serious Violence Duty (SVD) was introduced by Government as part of the Police, Crime and Sentencing Act 2022 (PCSC). It began on the 31st January 2023 and created 5 specified authorities that have the legal responsibility to deliver the duty.
The five specified authorities plus the OPFCC have formed the Northamptonshire Serious Violence Prevention Partnership (NSVPP) to enable to the deliver and strategic oversight of the duty in the county.
Funds have been awarded to Northamptonshire from the Home Office via the OPFCC to deliver interventions to support in the delivery of the Serious Violence Duty in the county.
The NSVPP have allocated grant funding aimed at delivering activity in the three identified priority areas of Personal Robbery, Youth Violence (Under 25) and Knife Crime.
Grant funding, up to the value of £117,000, is available to start new primary prevention and intervention projects that mitigate personal robbery, youth violence and / or knife crime. Organisations can submit bids of any value up to £117,000 if their activity can deliver against the priority areas. The NSVPP are happy to award a number of smaller application across organisations if these are evaluated as having the best outcomes against the award criteria.
The NSVPP will consider bids that:
focus one of the three priorities with values up to £117,000
cover more than one of the three priorities but where the overall value of all the activity does not exceed £117,000.
