Ex-Offenders, Young Offenders or Young People at Risk of Offending
UK registered charities and charitable incorporated organisations based and working in the UK that can demonstrate impact with ex-offenders, young offenders or young people at risk of offending, either within a local area or nationally may apply for small grants of up to £5,000 or larger grants with no set limit.
The funding is intended for registered charities working to:
- Support offenders and ex-offenders into work, specifically for those looking to build skills and capability to get into sustainable work.
- Help specific groups within the criminal justice sector that are less popular with funders than others.
- Support young people (up to 25 years) from disadvantaged and socio-economically challenged groups, such as immigrants, to ensure they are given every possible chance to realise their full potential and to participate fully in society.
Grants are normally awarded for one year only, though exceptions can be made.
Whilst the size of organisation is not relevant when making an application, it may be easier for smaller organisations to demonstrate impact.
The grants can be used for pump priming, project funding, associated project costs, core costs for new projects and innovative or pioneering work.
