CREATING LINKS BETWEEN THE OFFENDER AND THE COMMUNITY

The New Bridge was founded in 1956 to create links between the offender and the community. We forge these links through our Voluntary Associates who support, advise and befriend people in prison; through our parenting courses for offenders; by helping ex-offenders to find jobs and places on training and education courses; by encouraging the reintegration of ex-offenders into the community; and in these ways preventing more citizens becoming victims of crime.
