Programme overview
In 2015, 14 grants worth £4.6 million were awarded to support projects working with ex-Forces with the aim of reducing re-offending.
Seven continuation grants worth £1,101,308 were subsequently awarded to some existing grant holders that are supporting ex-Forces personnel with needs that can be complex.
Projects have had success in reaching veterans who are currently offending or who are at risk of offending.
The continuation grants will help some of these projects to develop further work to encourage the lasting sustainability of projects that offer good support to ex-Service personnel who are in the criminal justice system and to encourage collaboration and effective cross-sector working that reduces duplication and provides the best possible pathways for veterans.
