📞Many in prison can’t afford to call home during Christmas. @Nacro & Justice ExChange highlight this in their moving film, calling for fairer phone charges year-round. Watch & share their #CalltoConnect campaign youtu.be/Hn3FXeFSlf8
Thanks to @cashforkidsMCR for your support again this year with gifts for the children & young people we work with. They are on their way 🎅

Still time for church & faith groups to book on our *free* Welcoming Prison Leavers course with @welcome_dir Session for leaders this Weds evening & for wider teams on Saturday am. Hope you can join us!
📢 Did you know around 8,000 people leave prison each year having practiced their faith on the inside but never join a faith community on the outside?
Want to learn how your faith group can help change this? Join our Welcoming Prison Leavers course👉 togetherliverpool.org.uk/wha…

We have set up a free Legal Advice Clinic for parent/carers looking after children with a parent in prison.
Our aim is to fill a significant gap in legal services, encouraging stability and promoting justice for families impacted by parental imprisonment.
If you are a solicitor and would like to get involved, please get in touch at [email protected]
This service is open to anyone caring for children with a parent in prison, from any organisation.
Thank you so much to the Firebird Foundation for funding this project 🙏
