Guidance Notes and Best Practice Guides
MoJ: Ministers have launched a new "toolkit" from the year-long Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Demonstration Project, at the National Alliances Conference. The Corporate, Civic Society and Faith Voluntary sector Alliances, launched in November 2005, aim to make reducing re-offending everyone's business.
The Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Demonstration Project involved representatives from Leicester City Council, Leicestershire County Council, Melton Borough Council, Oadby and Wigston Borough Council, Rutland County Council, the National Offender Management Service, Probation and the Prison Services, working together in partnership to improve equality of access for offenders to mainstream local services such as accommodation and employment.
