Application for Small Grant Award under or equal to £5,000 – Reducing Reoffending Fund

Holme Farm – Community Payback in Surrey – Rebecca Huffer

Brief overview of service/decision – To award £5,000 to Community Workshops & Gardens at Holme Farm, a registered charity which is creating an intergenerational community hub, green space, workshops and gardens at a disused site at Holme Farm, Woodham.

Reason for funding – 1) Community Workshops & Gardens at Holme Farm actively looks to reduce reoffending as it supports volunteer working parties, and partners with HM Probation through the Community Payback scheme to offer offenders an opportunity to do voluntary work at Holme Farm.

2) Green and social prescribing, education, mental and physical wellbeing, and conservation form part of Holme Farm’s governing principles. The project looks to create a sustainable asset for the local community, strengthening the relationship between local residents, the OPCC, and HM Probation Surrey.

Liberty Choir – Pilot-Programme at HMP High Down & HMP&YOI Downview- Emma Gray

Brief overview of service/decision – To award £5,000 to Liberty Choir, who are full-circle charity whose work begins with in-prison weekly choir rehearsals (20 prisoners, 20 community volunteers, director, accompanist). This initial project is an 8-week pilot-programme at HMP High Down and HMP & YOI Downview to reintroduce Liberty Choir to the men and women, following a sustained period of activity restrictions in both prisons due to the pandemic.

Reason for funding – 1) This pilot promotes the rehabilitation of prisoners in setting up choirs to build the skills and capacity of offenders, so that they can break the cycle of re-offending on release into the community. Once the participants leave prison, they are supported by volunteers through Liberty Choir’s network of community choirs.

2) It promotes social inclusion amongst socially excluded people, by providing a programme of high-quality singing, to help develop skills and self-confidence. This assists them with social integration when they return to the community.

That the Commissioner supports these small grant applications to the Reducing Reoffending Fund and awards to the following;

  • £5,000 to the Community Workshops & Gardens at Holme Farm
