Wizer CIC was founded by an individual with significant amounts of lived experience of the criminal justice system. It seeks to break the cycle of offending by addressing the rehabilitative needs with the support of employees, volunteers and peer advisors, all of whom have lived experience themselves.
Wizer CIC are currently taking referrals for prison leavers 12 weeks prior to release and then working collaboratively with all agencies to ensure there isn't any overlap and duplication.
Specialist Navigators offer intensive support in the community to address the individuals needs and then look to transition into further ETE. Wizer has worked with an education providor for many years now offering fully funded sector based qualifications with full access to over 300 employers as part of the colleges wider network.
In addition, Wizer has working professional relationships within MoJ, HMPPS, Public Health, Humberside Police and the OPCC
