Commissioned Rehabilitative Services General Grant Scheme

The Commissioned Rehabilitative Services General Grant Scheme provides support for people with shared protected characteristics or shared experiences, or to promote rehabilitation and desistance to support the aims of Her Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) to protect the public and reduce reoffending. England and Wales are divided into 12 probation regions, each with access to a budget per financial year that can be used to commission rehabilitative services through grant awards. The scheme aims to improve people's engagement in, and experience of, probation and other rehabilitative activities; to support an individual's rehabilitation and desistance journey; and to improve HMPPS' knowledge of which activities work to support people and to encourage rehabilitation and desistance. The grant scheme enables HMPPS to award multiple competed general grants across the probation regions. Organizations can register their interest through the Probation Grants Applications Portal.
