If you are seeking voluntary work, which plays an important part in the local community, and would be prepared to commit on a regular basis, we would love to hear from you. We are offering free accredited training, the opportunity to use existing skills and develop new ones, meet new friends and ‘put something back’. You would be part of an organization that helps solve over 5.5 million problems by contributing towards free advice to anybody on almost anything; from debt, housing and employment to benefit and
legal matters.

LINCOLNSHIRE POLICE RELEASE FUNDS IN PILOT SCHEME FOR CHARITABLE CAUSES
Lincolnshire Police are inviting members of the public, community groups and people in need of assistance through disability hardship, to apply to them for funding in support of charitable causes, projects or events. The pilot scheme makes available four grants of up to £500 to help towards any charitable or worthwhile cause. This money will come from the Police Property Act Fund.
The Police Property Act Fund is an account whereby allocations are received from the sale of recovered stolen goods or property that has been found or seized. If the owners of the property are not traceable, then the goods are sold at auction. The monies from the sale of goods are then redistributed for charitable purposes.
Anyone living in Lincolnshire is entitled to apply for funding. Applications which
help to further any of the areas below are particularly welcome. An explanation
of these areas, along with an application form, is available on the Lincolnshire
Police website under the ‘Initiatives’ -
Reduction of crime; Reduction of anti social behaviour; Partnership working; Social/Project Development; Community Cohesion; Disability Hardship
The deadline for applications is 30th November 2009. No applications will be accepted after this period. Decisions on whether applications will receive support should be made within 14 days of their receipt.
Should you have any further queries, or wish to submit an application form, please contact:
