Community Support Scheme

Supporting individuals as they transition from custody to community and work towards stability, independence, and positive change.

Adjusting to life after prison can be overwhelming. Many individuals face challenges around housing, routine, confidence, accessing services, and rebuilding stability.

The Community Support Scheme provides practical, person-centred support to help individuals navigate this transition and move forward with greater confidence and structure.

Practical Support for Reintegration

The Community Support Scheme focuses on helping individuals address immediate reintegration challenges while building longer-term stability and independence.

Our support is tailored to individual circumstances and may involve practical guidance, service referrals, advocacy, and ongoing one-to-one support.

We understand that reintegration is a process, and individuals may require support at different stages of their journey.

What Support May Include

Why this service matters

The period immediately after release can be one of the most challenging stages of reintegration.

Without appropriate support, individuals may experience isolation, instability, and barriers to accessing services and opportunities.

The Community Support Scheme aims to reduce these barriers and provide continuity of support during a critical transition period.
