A church in Stone Cross has received a £500 donation from police to support its work in the community.
St Luke’s Church in Hailsham Road was awarded the money from the Police Property Act Fund (PPAF) to go towards its ongoing community support work.
St Luke’s provides a weekly service in partnership with Eastbourne Foodbank, actively engages with schools, youth groups and the community in the parish while providing a safe space.
The PPAF is made up of money received by the police from the sale of found property and from property confiscated by order of court and then sold.
The main aim of the fund is to support local projects undertaken by voluntary and charitable organisations that solely benefit the communities of Sussex.
