Who Can Apply

Only people under the supervision of the Probation Service in Berkshire.  

What Can Be Funded

We provide financial assistance for anything from basic clothing to securing accommodation or meeting the cost of getting back into work. The Trust can help fund training courses, clothing for interviews or basic equipment for the workplace. Urgent requests for bedding, basic clothing, furniture or white goods are also considered.

What Can Not Be Funded

We will not consider applications for payment of rates, taxes or fines.

How To Apply

An Offender Manager must complete a TIOT application form and send it to the TIOT Treasurer. The Trustees aim to respond quickly and in good time to help the applicant. Money is awarded as a grant to the service user, strictly through their Probation Officer, who will then buy what is needed and provide TIOT with receipts.

Notes
Applicants remain anonymous, Trustees are provided with basic facts and details of how the grant or loan may support rehabilitation.

(The Inside Out Trust is the working name of the Berkshire Care Trust, which was founded in 1982.)

I have been able to go and buy some new clothes with the money you have given me … I really worked hard to stay out of prison, after being in for so long, and living a proper life for the first time every day of the week."
