The Feltham Chaplaincy Trust


	QUICK LINKS: Our Vision \| Our Aim \| Our Values \| Our Commitment Feltham Community Chaplaincy Trust (FCCT) 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 the opportunity to access a faith support network in the communities to which they are returning and are given a real chance not to re-offend. Return to Top

	Our Commitment FCCT is passionately committed to supporting young people being released from Feltham to enable them to re-settle into their own communities. Only if there is an effective 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 faith communities. Others do not. In either case FCCT aims to provide them with a vital link between prison and the society to which they return. Working in partnership with the wide range of faith communities in London FCCT trains and supports volunteer mentors from the communities, so as to empower them in their efforts to re-integrate these young men who are often living on the margins of society.
