Life After Prison Presents: Touch Road – Episode 1

While The Sit Down is taking a short break, we bring you Touch Road, a brand-new mini-series about life after release from prison. Three people tell their stories of life after walking through the gate. In episode one we hear all about how they prepare for release, and how it feels to step out of jail for the first time once their sentence is over.   If you have recently been released from prison, there are lots of organisations that can support you:  Mental Health CALM CALM helpline – 0800 58 58 58 (open 5pm-midnight) Samaritans Samaritans helpline – 116 123 (24 hours) Post Release Support/ Disclosing your conviction NACRO Unlock PACT Clinks Directory Accommodation Shelter Crisis St Mungo’s Housing For Women St Giles Trust Employment Working Chance Switchback Employment 4 All Only A Pavement Away New Futures Network St Giles Trust Bounceback Clean Slate  Orgs that Support Women Advance Women In Prison Addiction and Recovery Humankind Turning Point Surviving Abuse Survivors UK Armed Forces Support Organisation SSAFA Care Leavers Care Leaver Covenant Hosted on Acast.
