Not My Sentence

In 2023, we were commissioned by the Safer Devon Partnership to collect data and firsthand experiences from young people who have experienced familial imprisonment. The goal was to identify gaps in support and determine how and when these young people would prefer to receive assistance, and from whom. Based on this research, Safer Devon has agreed to fund our Education Support Service to deliver a bespoke six-week program for young people affected by a family member's imprisonment.

Our Programme

This programme is for young people who have experienced a family member go to prison and are struggling. There is little support for young people who experience a family member going to prison. So we have teamed up with Safer Devon to offer young people support and information.

Eligibility: Aged 8 - 16

Pricing: FREE 6 week programme

This handbook, created by youth workers at SPACE with support from Safer Devon and The Prison Reform Trust, provides young people with essential information about the justice system.

2024’s Final Report

In January 2024 we produced our final report to show our background research, and findings from the project. You can find a summary of this report here to download today.
