Prisoners Abroad's Annual Review (2022-23)

Dignity and hope for those we serve. These have been powerful watch words for us as we have navigated through the very difficult conditions of the past three years - difficult conditions for us, for our sector, and above all for the people we seek to help. The team has navigated skilfully through significant operational and financial challenges, and we look forward with renewed optimism.

Prisoners Abroad's Annual Review (2020-21)

Prisoners Abroad's Annual Review (2020-21)

We faced unprecedented challenges in getting our services through to the people we help. By utilising the agility, expertise and capacity of our staff and volunteers along with the fantastic commitment of our service delivery partners, we were able to delivery almost all our services remotely. "Ahead we have a complex and challenging future - income to be regained, both service and fundraising events programmes to be re-established, face to face work with returnees and families to be resumed all at a time of the lingering effects of Covid-19."

Prisoners Abroad's Annual Review (2019-20)

Prisoners Abroad's Annual Review (2019-20)

This financial year ended with the start of the Covid-19 worldwide pandemic, immediately changing our organisational landscape and environment. As our work operates globally, in over 90 countries, it was clear at an early stage that repercussions would be felt by many of the world's most vulnerable, and more specifically our service users; prisoners. In this review we showcase our three core services, bringing them to life with service user stories, and showing how we respond to need on a global scale.

Reducing Isolation and Combating Stigma (2015-16)

Reducing Isolation and Combating Stigma (2015-16)

Our most recent annual review focuses on isolation, something that has a detrimental effect on a person's emotional health, confidence and the ability to communicate. This publication tells stories of how isolation greatly affects people in prison overseas, and how with the right support this isolation can be reduced. You can read stories from people we have supported, like Gareth, Catherine, Genevieve and Kenisha. You can also read about developments and trends that have emerged for Prisoners Abroad over the last year. 

Protecting Human Rights, Saving Lives (2014-15)
