HMPPS funding available for ‘Activity Hubs’

HMPPS’s European Social Fund (ESF) Co-Financing Organisation has published a draft specification setting out the delivery requirements for a number of new Activity Hubs designed to provide safe and supportive spaces for people in the criminal justice system. 

Contract values range from £3.3m to £9.9m with the exception of a pilot veterans’ hub which is worth £1m. 

Contracts will run from 4th January 2021 until August 2023. Bids are invited from 30th March. 

This is being brought to the attention of organisations engaging in activity such as arts and crafts, sports and general community project work who may also be interested in this opportunity.
