Resettlement Service
We offer a resettlement service to those British prisoners returning from
overseas. The services we offer are as follows:-
-
Advice and assistance with finding emergency accommodation
-
Provide emergency grants (dependent on circumstances)
-
Give advice on welfare benefits
-
Provide referrals to specialist agencies, if necessary, for example
for those ex prisoners with medical or drug problems
-
Provide an opportunity for returning prisoners to talk through their
experiences or worries
We also provide temporary luggage storage, use of a computer and a shower
facility for returning prisoners.
We can only offer a resettlement service to those prisoners who have been
in contact with us before they arrive back in the UK.

| " If PA wasn't there for me I would have been homeless. I would be stranded. It's so nice
to have my own place,a nd it's all thanks to PA, because they helped me for that crucial first month, and they still
help me now if I have any questions to be answered. "
