Thousands of pounds will be spent in the fight against drugs on a city estate.
Youngsters in Whitehawk and Manor Farm, Brighton are set to benefit from nearly £5,000 from Brighton and Hove City Council’s Communities Against Drugs project.
It will fund Safety is Our Goal project, a multi-agency campaign run for 60 seven to 11-year-olds by the Crew Club.
£1,000 will be spent on a campaign to raise awareness of cannabis.
Crimestoppers fridge magnets and a new neighbourhood policing team leaflet will also be distributed.
The spending has been supported by the Whitehawk and Manor Farm Crime Prevention Forum and officers from Sussex Police.
