02 Activities

What the charity does

Cornergate Foundation works with prisoners/ex-offenders helping them to rehabilitate and resettle after prison, refraining from crime. We work with people in addictions, mental health conditions and the lonely and isolated as these factors all overlap. Core work is in befriending/mentoring, addiction recovery, signposting to other agencies and advocacy. We work in Hertfordshire and surrounds.
