Activities

'It carries out activities or services itself'

'the advancement of citizenship or community development','the relief of those in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage'

The charity supports those in prison and their families and friends mainly through the operation of Prison Visitor Centres at HMP & YOI Stirling and HMP Glenochil. The centres aim to provide a supportive, friendly and welcoming environment for friends and families visiting a prisoner. Support is provided by centre staff and trained volunteers to ensure experiences of prison visiting are less stressful and more positive than they would be otherwise, thereby encouraging more frequent visits and maintaining family ties. The intention is that this will increase the stability of children’s lives and reduce the risks of children themselves engaging in anti-social behaviours and suffering mental health issues later in life. We hope to achieve positive long-term outcomes for all of the family. In the long term it is hoped that these improved family ties will contribute to reductions in re-offending with positive implications for the wider community.
