How we help | Returning Prisoners

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. "
