To provide care and support to prisoners, who want to 'go straight'. We befriend them in prison and help them rebuild a life upon release by helping them find accommodation, work and a Church/social environment. We keep in touch, support them for as long as needed. We have volunteers that visit them in prison and support them while they adjust to life in the community. Our aim is that these people never re-offend and our track record is good so far. This organisation has/is supporting 50 clients and hopes to provide support to another 5 released prisoners this year. We have some accommodation to help support clients post hostel.
