Aims/priorities: Funding is available for organisations who support people in prison, leaving prison, under license in the community, or serving a community sentence, to continue to work in the context of the Covid-19 crisis or to make adaptations for their long-term work that are necessary due to the effects of Covid-19.
This includes (but is not limited to):
- Activities or services in direct response to needs created by the Covid-19 crisis
- Adaptations to activities or services to allow organisations to continue working during the Covid-19 crisis
- Resources to allow organisations to make long-term or permanent adaptations to their work to adapt to a ‘new normal’. This could include, but is not limited to, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), electronic or office equipment, and the development of written materials to replace or complement face-to-face work.
Organisations must have existing relationships/referral pathways and previous delivery within the criminal justice system. Services should not duplicate existing services, but can complement them or support users to access them if this is more difficult due to Covid-19.
Who can apply? Registered charities or incorporated social enterprises
Grant amount: No organisation will be granted more than £20,000, but we expect the average grant size to be £3,000-£5,000.
