In Nottinghamshire over 270,000 hours of Community Payback are completed every year by offenders on a community sentence.
Community Payback projects range from litter removal to clearing dense under growth, and environmental projects through repairing and redecorating community centres or removing graffiti. Offenders usually work as part of a team, monitored by a supervisor, and will work all day with short breaks, although there are some opportunities for individual placements.
To be considered your project must meet the following criteria
- It must benefit the local community
- It must not take paid work away from others
- No one must make a profit from the work
- It must be challenging and demanding
- It must be worthwhile and constructive
- Offenders must be seen to be putting something back into the community.
The Community Payback team will assess the project for suitability and for health and safety implications.

Anyone can nominate a project, so, if you are an individual, member of a club, community group, faith group or voluntary organisation and have a project that fits the criteria above, phone the Community Payback Team on 0115 8455123 or submit your details using the Community Payback Project nomination facility on this website.
