On 19 March 2019 the Home Secretary announced double the amount of funding awarded last year would be available for this year’s scheme; uplifting funding to £1.6 million for 2019/20</p><p>The Government has also announced a new £5 million fund over 3 years to provide security training for Places of Worship.
