Register your Faith Community

We would like as many faith communities to register with the Welcome Directory as quickly as possible.

We know that with a healthy network of welcoming faith communities

  • People leaving prison will have a better chance of staying out due to the practical support they receive as they continue their faith journey
  • Prison Chaplains will be able to respond positively about supportive communities in their home area to people they go to see people on their discharge visits  
  • Probation and other agencies can see where people they are responsible for can expect appropriate care and responsible support.  
  • Faith communities will see themselves as part of a growing movement for change that says to everyone in society - people leaving prison need welcome and we are here to give it.
