NEPACS has requested funding for £2,528 from the PCC Community Safety Initiative Fund.
Funding will assist with the delivery of ‘special family visits’ at HMP Kirklevington and HMP Holme House.
These special visits help sustain links between prisoners and their families, and to provide reassurance and stability for children affected by separation.
They are different from normal domestic visits, and provide effective informal education, including craft activities, quizzes, sport and the opportunity to share a meal as a family.
