A million pounds seized from criminals will be invested in community safety projects.
From Monday, November 11, organisations across West Yorkshire can apply for the latest round of the Mayor's Safer Communities Fund.
Since 2021, more than £3 million has been awarded to various projects via the fund.
Mayor of West Yorkshire, Tracy Brabin, said: "This money will make a real difference, helping us to keep our communities safe."
The funds' money is made available largely thanks to West Yorkshire Police’s Economic Crime Unit, which recuperates criminal gains made through offences such as fraud and drug dealing.
Chief Constable John Robins said: "This latest grant round is one of the largest pots of funding there has been as part of the Mayor’s Safer Communities Fund, and represents a real opportunity to make a significant positive impact in our communities in West Yorkshire."
Organisations must apply for a grant by midday on December 13.
