Seeing lives transformed

Our vision is that every prisoner has access to support and prayer.

Our mission is to show Christ’s love to prisoners by coming alongside them and supporting them.

We seek through prayer and practical care to help, support and develop a Christian ministry to prisoners and their families. We do this through our network of volunteer members, and currently have 1,700+ members across England and Wales.

What is our mission?  

How do we work? 

Prison population in England and Wales is approx 84,000

We are the top incarcerator in Western Europe

47% of adults are reconvicted after one year of release, rising to 60% after two years

160,000 children have one or both parents in prison

65% of boys with a convicted parent go on to offend

What we do 

Prayer is the basis for all that we do, and where it all started.
