Programmes and Grants Policy and Procedures (Community and Voluntary Sector Funding)

Published date:

Probation aims to change the lives of offenders for safer communities. In carrying out this work, Probation works collaboratively with others, including the Community and Voluntary Sector. 

In this context, Probation acknowledges the value, commitment and expertise of the Community and Voluntary Sector and is committed to partnership working with the sector in respect of the delivery of secondary support services aimed at changing the lives of people on Probation. 

This policy puts in place an allocation framework for the distribution of community and voluntary sector funding to support Probation's role in helping making communities safer in Northern Ireland.
