The Social Interest Group (SIG) was formed as a charity in 2014. Its sole aim is to be a vehicle to develop and strengthen the charities that are within it, so they in turn thrive and do social good. Our members include Penrose Options and Equinox Care.
As a Tier 2 provider for London CRC, we currently deliver the following high-performing services:
• Resettlement support to 6,000 men per year in 4 male prisons
• Community supervision of 2,500 men sentenced to less than 12 months, with our Responsible Officers based in every London borough
• Job Fairs that bring together a range of employers and trainers, providing service users a one-stop shop of live opportunities, CV and disclosure workshops and interview technique classes
Outside of our probation work, we deliver a wide range of residential and floating support services across London, Brighton and Bedfordshire, with a particular focus on mental health (including forensic), substance misuse and complex needs.
