About CashBack for Communities

CashBack for Communities is a Scottish Government programme which takes funds recovered from the proceeds of crime and invests them into free activities and programmes for young people across Scotland. Inspiring Scotland is the delivery partner for the CashBack for Communities programme, appointed in July 2012.

. CashBack invests monies seized from criminals under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 back into our communities. . Since 2008 the Scottish Government has committed £75 million to CashBack / community initiatives, funding community activities and facilities largely, but not exclusively, for young people. . CashBack supports all 32 Local Authorities across Scotland. . Sporting and recreational activities / culture / mentoring and employability / community projects. . CashBack has delivered nearly 1.8 million activities and opportunities for young people. . Phase 3 of CashBack runs to end March 2017 and is focused on positive outcomes for young people.

CashBack for Communities: Aims

CashBack activities:

. Use the proceeds of crime in a positive way to expand young people’s horizons and increase their opportunities to develop their interests and skills in an enjoyable, fulfilling and supportive way. . Are open, where possible, to all children and young people, while focusing resources in those communities suffering most from antisocial behaviour and crime. . Seek to increase levels of participation to help divert young people away from ‘at risk’ behaviour, and will aim to increase the positive long-term outcomes for those who take part.

Activity number represents the number of activities and opportunities that young people have taken advantage of as a result of CashBack funding. It should be noted that CashBack partners may have worked with some of the same young people over a number of years. Therefore the total annual activity and opportunity figures might not directly correlate to the number of individual young people who have been involved with CashBack.

Historic CashBack funding (2008 -2014)

Examples of CashBack funded activities up to 2014

The Small Grants Scheme consortium has been a beneficiary of CashBack funding in Fife since 2008 and this has included supporting Boys Brigade, Girlguiding Scotland, Scouts, Girls Brigade, Clubs for Young People and Youth Club activities across the area.

YouthLink Scotland, through the Youth Work Fund, has supported capacity of young people and youth work organisations. Examples in the Local Authority include YMCA, Levenmouth Youth Strategy Group, LGBT Youth Scotland, Youth at Kennoway and Windygates Youth Club.

The Scottish FA currently operate a School of Football at Kirklands High School operating 2 year groups and have also developed an accreditation course ‘Developing Individual Performance in Sport’ (SCQF 5) for the young people to progress through. Street Football has been a project that has been at the core of providing activity to areas of deprivation in Scotland and has been operating in Benarty and Kelty Community Centres. SFA has also run the Midnight League programme in the Authority at , Fleet Grounds, Duloch Leisure Centre, Valleyfield Primary, and St. Andrews University.

Scottish Rugby Union runs broad participation activities in Fife and the CashBack funding has been used to part-fund two part time rugby Development Officers.

Fife – CashBack Outcomes: Case Studies

CashBack has made a huge difference to the lives of young people. We have captured information on individual case studies for CashBack partners which demonstrate the impact delivery activities have had to those participating. These can be accessed on the CashBack website at http://www.cashbackforcommunities.org/

C is an up and coming young female coach. With the support of a number of CashBack supported programmes, she was appointed to her first job in basketball. As a result, and after being supported through a number of coaching badges, she is a coach with Dunfermline Reign where she coaches the U14’s girl’s squad each week. Since then she was encouraged to apply for a coaching job at the Larbert School of Basketball, a CashBack funded project, which involves engaging with local schools and also providing a pathway for young players to join basketball clubs. This has now led to C also being involved in coaching the National U16 Women’s squad. Recently she received a nationally recognised Scottish Sports Award as Young Volunteer of the Year.

T’s story – “I come from the Gallatown in Kirkcaldy. Poverty, deprivation, social exclusion and lack of opportunities have had a massively detrimental impact in the Gallatown and it has been in serious decline for years. I spent most of my life thinking this is how life is - but why should it be? We are not statistics; we are people and deserve to give ourselves the best possible chance at anything we choose and want to be and how we want to live. I want a better place for my family and friends to live, better prospects, a safe and secure community we're proud of – not just my community, but the whole of Scotland. Around 2 and a half years ago I lost my job and had to give up volunteering with Rotaract because of my financial situation, dealing with my health issues and the mental health situation of someone close to me. This led to me becoming really socially isolated compounding my problems. Luckily for me, 2 years ago I met the CashBack funded Gallatown Link Up Worker and got involved in some local activities. This took away some of the stress and allowed me to get back into volunteering locally – knowing that I could help out at an activity, in my own community and also benefit by getting a bite to eat and making new friends, was a huge benefit. I began to realise I had something to offer and by having access to a variety of opportunities in my own community, I started to build on my skills which also helped me regain some of the confidence and self-belief I had lost.”

“For me, Link Up has been life changing and I've seen a huge change in a lot of people I know around the community. Seeing so many people get involved in organising things like the local Gala and toddler groups, play groups, out cycling and doing pottery!! It's inspiring and is why I want to go to University and help bring about the same kind of change in other communities. People matter and people care. They just need somebody to care about what they care about!”
