| Recipient Org: Description | The Croft, established 2014, provides a support service for people visiting, or preparing to visit, someone in Scotland?s largest prison, HMP Barlinnie, with up to 1400 prisoners by creating a more welcoming environment to alleviate the pressure on families. As this is a male prison, visitors are usually women, with children, and the Croft supports families to cope when dealing with what is often one of the most difficult times in their lives as they have lost a co-parent and often the main wage earner. Croft staff support visitors to understand the visiting system and prison in general; provide information on claiming travel expenses and provide combined support with specialist agencies. Support is provided 6 days a week covering 44 of the 48 visits every week and in 2018 supported 6,000 adults and 2,000 children. |
