Prison Fellowship England and Wales
www.prisonfellowship.org.ukPrison Fellowship aims to help, support and develop prisoners and their families. Prison Fellowship works through its volunteer members to support prisoners, through programmes such as Sycamore Tree, a victim awareness course run in prisons, Angel Tree, where volunteers enable a Christmas present to be sent to prisoners' children, a Letter Writing scheme, and chaplaincy suppoprt. We do this through our network of volunteer members, and currently have over 2,000 members across England and Wales. Who benefits? 1. Prisoners, who have the opportunity to realise the impact of their actions and so stop reoffending, though the Sycamore Tree course and Letter Writing 2. Prisoners families, as prisoners are encouraged to think about them, though Angel Tree programme and family days 3. Victims of crime, who volunteer and are able to explain directly to prisoners the impact of crime n the victims of crime 4. The Prison Service, as prisoners increase interest in rehabilitation programmes 5. Volunteers, who gain a deeper understanding of both the impact of crime on ordinary people, but also are more likely to be positive about the rehabilitation of ex-offenders into normal society 6. Society at large, as ex-offenders cease offending and re-enter society
