The UK Resettlement Scheme (UKRS) started in March 2021 and reaffirms the UKs ongoing commitment to refugee resettlement. Resettlement relies on collaborative working with local authorities to deliver practical support to refugees on arrival and then support them in their integration into the community over a 5-year resettlement period. The specific outcomes for this work are outlined in the Funding Instruction and summarised below. The funding provided is intended to serve as a contribution to the costs associated with resettlement. Evaluation of the value for money of the funding has been carried out throughout the year through a mixture of data monitoring, qualitative research and an internal evaluation programme. The detail of the Funding Instruction has recently been reviewed by business leads to confirm it meets the needs of the programme for 2021/22 and represents value for money.

We are running a 7 day a week (including late night/out of hours) emergency food/medical supply delivery campaign to people self-isolating, in financial difficulty, the elderly, and NHS staff. The service is free and the food items are free to the service users unless they can afford to pay for the parcels. We have a volunteer force of over 100 drivers who can deliver food /medicine however we need to fund the items. We have managed so far with the support of local businesses and other community groups however supplies are running low and are expected to reduce as time goes on.
