Such an approach will recognise the need for support with basic amenities, social connection and access to wider services alongside direct therapeutic provision. This aligns with the Home Office goal to protect vulnerable people and communities. For the purposes of this grant a civil society organisation can include charities, charitable incorporated organisations, social enterprises, community interest companies, universities and voluntary and community groups. Grant funding will be made available for bids ranging from a minimum of £200,000 to a maximum of £500,000 in year 1 and a maximum of £600,000 in year 2. The grant funding will be for two years, however, the Home Office will retain the option to extend the successful bidder's project for an additional year. If regional organisations would like to bid we encourage them to do so in partnership with other organisations to ensure a UK-wide offer. Evidence of experience in delivering the above services in partnership with those with lived experiences will be considered positively. Also, evidence of and provision for working with interpreters will be considered positively. The target cohort for this grant are those adults (18 and above) whose appeal rights are yet to be exhausted.
