Our work is focused on some of the most complex cases in the criminal justice system: people serving IPP sentences and Lifers, whose path to release and reintegration is often shaped by addiction and mental health challenges alongside the unique pressures of an indeterminate sentence. On this page you can see the difference that specialist, sustained support makes in practice.
We try to ensure our impact on our clients and the probation system continues to grow each year, through hard work, developing our strategies, building our team and expertise and investigating various funding possibilities. You can read more about our impact in the report below.
We offer a variety of FREE training sessions for our clients upon release that help them with basic life skills. We also have available a training trajectory that after usually 6 months and completion of the basic training they can train to become a volunteer with New Connections.
All training courses are a 12 week course, in a modular form so you can start at any point in the twelve weeks. They are run weekly and if you complete the course you will recieve a certificate. They are run online but will also be available to call in to the course for those who do not have access to video call facilities or do not wish to.
The details, links and times of all our courses are below please register your interest below as we will only run courses when we have enough attendees
