Home Office Funding Secures Future of Essex Violence and Vulnerability Unit
The Essex Violence and Vulnerability Partnership was today awarded over £5 million from the Home Office to continue its fight against drug driven violence, county lines and knife crime. This funding, distributed across the next three years, not only guarantees the continuation of the Violence and Vulnerability programme over this period but is a large increase on previous funding acknowledging the success of the work underway across Essex. This funding has also been generously boosted for 2022 / 23 by contributions of £500k from Essex County Council and £600k from the Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Essex as announced in their budgets in February. Working together, the Partnership aligns activity to prevent violence and protect the vulnerable alongside strong, robust enforcement activity with the priorities of: • Identifying and tackling organised crime gangs, County Lines and drug supply. • Delivering a proactive, robust local enforcement programme in partnership with communities. • Reducing the risk of young or vulnerable people being exploited by gangs and help those involved in gangs to break away. The Partnership has developed a strategic approach that is delivering significant results in the fight against violent crime; this is informed by a strong evidence base and the lived experience of individuals and communities which underpin its public health approach to tackling violence and its root causes. The unique focus on vulnerability recognises that there are underlying factors that contribute to serious violence, and it is these factors the Partnership is responding to by addressing vulnerability , providing early interventions and targeted, tailored programmes. Roger Hirst, Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Essex and Chair of the Violence and Vulnerability Partnership said: “Violence in our communities affects us all; the vulnerable who are groomed into a life of crime, the families living without a loved one, the victims of drug driven crime and all of us in wider society who want to live free from the fear of violence. “This continued funding from the Home Office allows us to continue at pace, with the progress we have been making across the County to support young people and their families. The generous increase to funding is confirmation that what we are doing works and is making a real difference.” The Essex Violence and Vulnerability Unit was set up in 2019 to tackle the growing threat of County Lines within Essex, since creation the Unit has:
• Worked with over 50 local charities and voluntary sector organisations to fund localised projects
•
Given out £500,000 in funding to local groups • Worked with more than 2,000 young people and children to better understand their experience of serious violence and what they would like to see in response to the issues which impact on them • Delivered 5,000 hours of detached youth work across Essex • Delivered training to a wide variety of professionals working with children and young people – helping them spot the signs of exploitation and identify those at risk Worked with Essex Police to safeguard vulnerable individuals identified through operational police work • Supported over 10,000 individuals through support, positive activities and intervention programmes over the last three years. This includes working with 1,200 individuals at risk of offending by delivering bespoke support packages to change and address behaviour

We have so many people who can bake cakes in the village. You can involve the children too. Pleas contact me for full details of where to drop these off prior to the event—June@northwealdvillagelife.co.uk. You can drop them off at the Kings Head on the Monday 30th and Tuesday 31st May and Wednesday 1st May. • We need help on the day. We have stalls that need manning, tea and just to supervise, as it will be help yourself, cakes to cut up, children’s craft and races to supervise, just being there to assist—even if it is just for an hour. Please help. • We need tombola and raffle prizes for the day. Again these can be dropped off at the Kings Head Garage anytime from now until Wednesday 1st June. • If you are a business you can sponsor certain areas of the day. • Both Hastingwood and Thornwood would also love extra volunteers for their events. Please email me June@northwealdvillagelife.co.uk (07814 863955) or dawn.hallcc@gmail.com for offers of help, details on where to donate prizes, cakes etc. We are trying to organise this so that this fun celebration will be available to everybody, you don’t need to spend money as a lot of things will be free—no admission, free movies playing the day, free entertainment (hopefully) free races and children’s craft and the free afternoon tea. There will of course be food and drink to purchase on the day. The day will end with lighting the beacon at 9.45pm which is happening nationwide. We need helps, volunteers and donations— the more we get the bigger event we can organise. We are all part of the community—now is the time to work together.
