What does Prison Fellowship Scotland do?

Prison Fellowship Scotland is a non denominational Christian charity that, through its partnership agreement with the Scottish Prison Service, supports prison chaplains in delivering programmes to men and women in all the prisons in Scotland. These programmes focus on developing resilience among people in prison and helping to address offending behaviours, while also providing ongoing support during their time in custody. Through these partnerships, we also seek to ensure that those in prison can access support on release. In addition, we run programmes for the families of those in prison.
