In the charity's own words
LandWorks is a ground-breaking resettlement charity working with those in prison, or at risk of going to prison. Using the structure of a working day to teach transferable skills and work intensively on a 1-2-1 basis, we help them develop a crime-free identity, move away from offending and back into jobs and the community. We have proven we can break the crime-prison-release-prison cycle.
