In November 2011 Clinks conducted a survey of the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise Sector about the police reforms, in particular about the introduction of police and crime commissioners. Now that the police and crime commissioners have been elected Clinks would like to find out how you consider your relationship with them and what opportunities you feel might arise from the new commissioning environment.
This survey is intended for people working in the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) Sector involved in community safety and criminal justice.
New Philanthropy Capital (NPC) is developing a new toolkit with National Offender Management Service (NOMS) to measure the outcomes of work to improve offenders' relationships, and is working with Clinks to get your opinions on what this should include. The survey should take no longer than 10 minutes, and the deadline for responses is 13 March.

Transforming Rehabilitation is a government proposal to contract out and extend probation services starting in 2015. The role of Probation Services will be restricted to high risk offenders. The current proposals, which are being consulted on, are that services will be delivered by a small number of prime contractors (Primes) in 16 areas which are likely to be co-terminous with the Work Programme areas.
GMCVO and Greater Manchester Probation Trust are looking to find new local providers to develop the provision of services for women and young men offenders, or their families, in Greater Manchester.
They are running a competition and a grant funding scheme side by side to find local voluntary and community sector groups that can either:
• grow their services (‘Scaling Up’), or
• extend current delivery (‘Service Plus’ grant fund)
Eligible groups can apply for both schemes.
