South Yorkshire Rural Crime Initiative

South Yorkshire Police (SYP) working together with South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA) to prevent rural crime and support local residents, farmers and businesses.

The South Yorkshire Rural Crime Initiative was launched in March 2026 and brings together local partners to protect rural areas and provide practical support.

The initiative, which has been funded by SYMCA and is being delivered with SYP, has been developed in recognition of the disproportionate impact that rural and wildlife crime has on many rural communities.

What support is available?
Rural residents and businesses across South Yorkshire are invited to apply for a financial contribution towards crime prevention products and materials, which can be used to help target harden your property, therefore lessening your risk of becoming a victim of crime.

The funding can be used to purchase and install products such as CCTV cameras, security lighting, enhanced signage, drones and other target hardening measures, following advice and guidance from our officers.

Varying levels of financial support are available, from £500 up to £2,000, dependant on a range of factors, including previous instances of crime reported at a property, and the determined risk of being a victim in the future. These factors will be assessed upon application.

To be eligible to apply for support, you must meet the following basic criteria:

* Be a resident or business based in a rural area in South Yorkshire
* Have been a victim, or near victim, of rural crime previously
* Perceive there is likelihood you may become a victim of rural crime based on housing high value plant/equipment at your property
* Perceive there is likelihood you may targeted by off-road vehicles on our land
* Perceive there is likelihood you may become a victim of wildlife crime due to the wildlife present on your land
* Believe there are opportunities for further crime prevention measures and target hardening to be put in place at your property, to provide greater protection.

The funding, which is available for a limited time, will be a contribution towards the overall cost of the materials purchased by the farmer, business owner or resident. All funding will be distributed by SYMCA.

How can I apply for support?
If you meet the above criteria and wish to apply for support, please email [email protected] and we will advise on next steps and share an application form with you.
