Why is that money being spent, when other countries around the world have managed to step away from a criminal justice system centred on punitive incarceration and reduce crime? Why is there no meaningful challenge to the rhetoric that a successful criminal justice system is one that is ‘tough on crime’? And why does ‘toughness’ equate to treating people inhumanely?

It is predicted that Socially Homes will help tens of thousands of people in crisis across the country as it rolls out over the next two years. Together, participants will explore ways of investing in social housing and social enterprise strategies, creating an online knowledge hub. The project is based on the findings of Amy’s Activate Fund project, which was funded in May 2020 from our new grant programme for Fellows’ UK activities.
