We do this by inspiring, enabling and supporting the local community to provide the relational and practical support people need in and on leaving prison. We run two of our own projecls, our Mentorme mentoring programme and our Prisoner Gift Projects. We also work in partnership with local groups, charities, organisalions and businesses. Working in this way expands the reach of our support and creates a bridge between the prison gate and the community in which people leaving prison are expected to operate. The majority of our work is carried out in the Greater Bristol area,. however, some of our partnership activity has developed beyond Bristol to prisons nalionwide. Our Projects: 1. Mentorme - Enables volunteer mentors to support people with a criminal conviction. Our team of four core staff recnjil, train and support mentors. as well as identifying suitable mentees. The team work closely with prisons, probalion, hostels, charities, churches and Ihe wider community. This is our largest project, supporting 90 prison-leavers over the last year. Mentorme also organises celebration events throughout the year for our mentors, mentees, and staff and local groups. These events help to build a sense of relationship, communily and connection and are key for people leaving prison in overcoming social anxiety, building confidence and finding ac￿pIanCe and belonging. 2. Christmas and Easter Prisoner Gift Projects-with Ihe support of13 local church groups, mentors, volunteers and the wider community, we distribute over 1,800 gifl bags to prisoners in Brislol, al times of the year when heightened isolalion and emotional slrain make self-harm or violence more likely. These small acts of kindness remind prisoners they are nol forgotten. Through these projects we are also able to promote our other support services available to people in, and on leaving prison. Our Partnerships: 1. We partner wilh four local churches that run mid-week Hubs, providing a wel(ximing spa for people who have left prison to meet, share food, leam and volunteer. Hubs are key not only for ongoing support, but also enable signposting to other ServI￿S which may help ex- prisoners. 2. We continue to wort( with Rupert Vernalls, founder of the highly acclaimed MBA Academy. Having made his MBA Empowemient Course available to people in and who have left prison, we continue to work with Rupert to expand his Goal-setting Workbook within UK prisons and lo our mentors and mentees. 3. We enable and support a local pastor and leader from the black community to run a Constructive Masculinity and Beekeeping Course in HMP Bristol and in the community. 4. We develop partnerships with local organisations, charities, churches and individuals. In this way, we can connect, refer and advise people across a range of interventions such as housing, employment, education, arts, music, volunteering, mental health and addiction. SIXTY-ONE TRUSTEES, REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025 Breaking the cycle Sixty-one bridges ihe gap between local volunteers and the justice system by coordinating prisoner gift projects, pairing community mentors with prison-leavers, and activating safe community spaces. By mobilising a ne￿Ork of dedicated individuals, we provide the relational stability and practical tools essential for suc￿Ssful resettlement. Last year, just 2.20/0 of mentees were recalled to prison - a 95.5 % reduction compared to the national average. This figure is a testament to the power of community in breaking the cycle of reoffending. Behind this statistic are 90 mentees with a desire for change and 732 mentoring meetings during the past year that are designed lo empower individuals to meet their goals. Our impact is further sustained by four community hubs combating isolation, in prison courses providing tools for change, city-wide partnerships, and 265 volunteers dedicated to our mission. We are deeply grateful to our supporters, partners, and-most importantly-the individuals we support. They continue to demonstrate commitment and detemiination to live out a future that looks different from their past, proving thal change is not only possible but that their future is full of hope. During the course of 2025, we achieved the following: In prison We had referrals from 11 prisons.. HMPS Ashfield, Bristol, Channings Wood, Downview, Eastwood Park, Edestoke, Exeter, Portland, Leyhill, Guys Marsh and Noltingham We engaged with over 50 agencies and charities lo build referral streams and support accurate signposting Our Menlorme team held 219 face-to-face meetings with 174 serving prisoners to identify suitable menlees to prepare them for their release and appraise them of the support available We connected wilh 2,236 serving prisoners over the year The Goal-setting Workbook was made available in over 70 prisons through Prison TV We ran 19 pre-release Goal-setting Wod
