Our volunteer mentors provide support with practical issues as well as motivating our service users to overcome the obstacles they face and look to a brighter future.

We're a commercial real bread bakery in Bedford, set up specifically to offer support to ex-offenders trying to resettle effectively into the local community and trying to not reoffend. Support offered comprises voluntary work experience and training (purposeful occupation), active listening to boost confidence and self-esteem, signposting to other agencies to deal with specific issues, support to find paid employment in due course, and the sort of practical help and advice that is readily shared among friends.
