Do you have staff and volunteers who are new to working in a custodial setting?

Participants will:

Discuss concerns and fears, and gain confidence to work in a prison environment
Be guided through an up to date overview of the criminal justice system, including different elements of the prison and probation services
Gain an understanding of the prison environment and the demographics of those in custody
Consider safe and responsible working within custodial settings, and be confident working within their boundaries.

"The training gave me a great deal of knowledge, understanding and confidence to work in a prison environment." – Training participant, London 2019
