A Future Beyond Your Past
Believe. Respect. Empower. Support.
Accredited practical training courses
Our training courses are designed to provide lifelong skills to help people create a brighter future. They cover several topics, from fire safety and food hygiene to manual handling and Portable Appliance Testing (PAT).
What we do
Everything we do helps and supports people with experience of the justice system to build new lives.
By treating everyone as an individual, we create a feeling of dignity, understanding, mutual respect and, most importantly, hope for the future.
Our free and completely confidential services foster trust and provide people with a platform from which they can flourish. That could be through volunteering, getting their own place, finding employment, support with addictions and more.
Every journey is one we’re proud to take together.
Finding the right help
While much of our work is done in person, we’ve put together free helpful online resources in different areas.
These include documents for download and answers to many frequently asked questions. This is just one of the ways we can help you, so please don’t worry if you can’t find what you’re looking for. You can learn more and get in touch directly with any questions by clicking the link below
