People have until Monday 21st April to lodge an expressions of interest on behalf of their organisation in managing one of the Emergency Bleeding Control Cabinets – or at least one of the kits that are housed in them.
Projects or initiatives need to focus on one or more themes of health and wellbeing, reducing or preventing crime and/or anti-social behaviour, youth engagement/intervention, environmental issues or community cohesion.
The Community Reassurance (CCTV) van is fitted with six fixed cameras and one 360-degree camera on a mast that can reach more than three metres in height.
The ‘Staysafe’ operations aim to tackle anti-social behaviour and identify other potential risks for young people who gather in known hot-spots during times like school holidays and when exams end.

Those few minutes between something happening and the emergency services arriving are often the most crucial, which is why access to things like the bleed kits, community defibrillators and Emergency Help Points are so important.
The treatment from the emergency kits can be lifesaving as it aims to reduce the amount of blood that might be lost from a wound while a rapid response ambulance crew is making its way to the scene
Volunteers, local schools, third sector organisations and other partner agencies took part in Environmental Action Days to build a sense of community pride in the areas and foster relationships between residents and authorities
Together As One is a multi-agency campaign highlighting the vast array of work that is being carried out by a range of individuals and groups who are united in a common goal to show that Merseyside will not tolerate serious violence.
Grants of up to £2,000 can be bid for by groups working within the three EVOLVE Wirral areas - Woodchurch, Beechwood & Ballantyne and Noctorum – plus, this year, groups working in Rock Ferry and New Ferry.
As 2025 begins, why not start the year with a new hobby and try your hand at some poetry writing for The Christopher Salmon Foundation, in conjunction with Wirral Poetry Festival and Wirral Libraries.
