QUICK LINKS: Our Vision | Our Aim | Our Values | Our Commitment

Feltham Community Chaplaincy Trust is a multi-faith organisation in which people of different faiths work together to help young offenders rebuild their lives.

We were the first Community Chaplaincy Project in the UK to work with Young People leaving prison

 

 
 
 
 

Our Vision

Young men leaving Feltham have a faith support network in the communities to which they are returning and a real chance not to re-offend.

Our Aim

In partnership with the Prison Service, other appropriate organisations and faith communities we aim to :

  • Provide care and support for young offenders of any faith or none
  • Promote healing and a change of heart
  • Help the young men we work with meet their practical needs for successful living without re-offending
Foster their personal growth and development, helping them build stable relationships within a faith or other supporting community, so that they come to lead fulfilling lives

Our Values

We believe that :

  • Young people in prison find or re-find faith
  • Young people leaving custody are capable of change
Young people can avoid resorting to crime if the support of a community they value is behind them

Our Commitment

The Trust is passionately committed to supporting young people being released from Feltham to enable them to re-settle back into their own communities.  Only by building a bridge between prison and the community can offenders really have any hope of leading a crime-free life.  Many of the young offenders returning to London come from diverse faith communities and the Feltham Community Chaplaincy Trust aims to provide a vital link between prison and their return back into society.

Through working in partnership with the complex range of faith communities in London and training and supporting a wide range of volunteer mentors from these communities, the Trust aims to empower them in their struggle to re-integrate these young men who are living on the margins of society.
