Prison Fellowship works with prisoners in England and Wales by offering practical care to help, support and develop a Christian ministry to them and their families.
The aim is to achieve this through their network of volunteers, of which there are more than 3,000. The charity is currently involved with almost all of the 120 prisons in England and Wales.
In 2021 the Randal Charitable Foundation provided grant funding for the purchase of Christmas gifts for around 240 vulnerable children of prisoners, as part of the Angel Tree Programme. This programme is focused on supporting the rebuilding of family relationships, following a parent or guardian serving a prison sentence.
The Angel Tree Programme gives parents in prison the opportunity to send a Christmas present to their children. In 2019, the charity sent out over 4,400 gifts.
