THE DIRECTORY 

Welcome to the 2026 directory

You can use this directory to find your closest, welcoming and supportive faith or belief community for prison leavers across England and Wales.

You can download a pdf version of directory for free (below), use the searchable map on our homepage or buy your own physical copy. The directory is sent to all prisons and Approved Premises across England and Wales, which allows prison chaplains to connect prison leavers to a welcoming faith or belief community before release. 

If you have used our directory, we would love to hear your feedback! You can send us your thoughts here.

It also features over 25 different organisations working in criminal justice and/or faith, helping you to signpost effectively or to directly access support/information for your resettlement.
