C2c Social Action

C2C Social Action works with individuals at any stage of the criminal justice system. With an aim to reduce reoffending we support, inspire and motivate people to move forward with their lives and give them the confidence to contribute positively to society. We work with women across Northamptonshire, and both women and men on projects in Milton Keynes. Our Motive Reoffending is a serious, and expensive, problem affecting every community: “Reoffending weakens public confidence in the criminal justice system’s ability to deal with offenders. It also has a significant financial cost, not only to the criminal justice system, but to wider society" People within the criminal justice system may find themselves in that situation for a number of reasons. C2C believe a person’s life shouldn’t be defined by their biggest mistake. Women Centered Our female service users are some of the most vulnerable people in society, with multiple complex needs and experiencing social isolation. Their mental health needs could include anxiety, self-harm and eating disorders. Many will be victims of crime and have experienced childhood trauma, domestic violence, or perhaps even both. A criminal record, a history of addiction, homelessness and a lack of self-confidence and self-belief means that few of our women believe someone would give them another chance. We provide our services to people of all faiths, or none, and regardless of their crimes, age, ethnicity, cultural background, gender Identity, sexuality, or disability.
