What the charity does

Prison Fellowship aims to support prisoners by coming alongside them and supporting them to change. We offer our victim awareness course (Sycamore Tree), family contact programme (Angel Tree) and Letter Writing services to all who request them, regardless of their beliefs. We do this through our network of volunteer members and have over 2500 volunteers throughout England and Wales.
