The list includes a mix of private and voluntary sector partnerships with more than 50 organisations represented \u2013 from charities experienced in tackling a range of issues affecting offenders, to small and large British businesses and experienced multinationals.

The contract allows for discussions with another CRC provider to be brought in as provider of last resort in the event that the initial provider fails.
