Women in Prison

About Women in Prison

Women in Prison is a dedicated organisation based in the UK that focuses on supporting women who are affected by the criminal justice system. Our mission is to empower these women, providing them with the necessary resources and support to rebuild their lives after incarceration.

We believe that every woman deserves a second chance, and we work tirelessly to advocate for their rights and well-being. Our core activities include offering counselling services, legal advice, and educational programmes aimed at equipping women with skills for employment and personal development.

In addition to direct support, we engage in policy advocacy to influence systemic change within the criminal justice system. We collaborate with various stakeholders, including government agencies, non-profits, and community organisations, to create a more just and equitable environment for women.

Our vision is to see a society where women in prison are treated with dignity and respect, and where they have access to the support they need to reintegrate successfully into their communities. We also focus on raising public awareness about the unique challenges faced by women in the criminal justice system.

• Core Activities:
• Providing emotional and psychological support
• Offering legal assistance and advocacy

Through our comprehensive approach, Women in Prison aims to break the cycle of reoffending and promote rehabilitation. We invite everyone to join us in our mission to support women in need and to foster a more inclusive society.
