For professionals
Our Breaking Barriers team can provide talks and presentations to teachers, social workers, police officers and other professionals to help them understand the ‘hidden sentence’ which is often endured by children and young people with a parent or family member in prison.
An estimated 310,000 children every year have a parent in prison in England and Wales and 10,000 visits are made by children to our public prisons every week.
