The work we do
Designed to see the whole person and help them pursue fulfilment of physical, mental, and spiritual health.
-
GROUP WORK IN PRISON
Through the SYCAMORE TREE PROJECT, we teach on the principles of Restorative Justice and through group work we build positive and sustainable support.
All who partake in the course are impacted by the transforming course contents.
-
MENTORING
We match self-selected or prison staff-nominated prisoners with our team of trained volunteer mentors. Our mentors meet to build relationships, increase self-esteem, and provide consistency and accountability in the lives of our service users. These relationships have the potential to blossom and continue as the service user completes their sentence and is returned to the community.

ADDICTION RECOVERY
Release provides a unique in-custody assessment service for incarcerated people seeking referral to community-based residential and day programmes as an alternative to imprisonment.

PRACTICAL HELP
Leaving prison can be challenging; having to navigate through accommodation, entitlements, relocation and ever advancing technology. Release can help with practical plans for reintegration and referrals to our partners.
