offenders should have the
opportunity to access the labour

About INSIDER ACCESS
Reducing Re-offending
Insider Access works extensively
providing a range of services for
offenders in prison, 'Through the
Gate' and in the community.
Staff at Insider Access believe that given the correct support offenders can make a successful transition from prison and into society.
We believe that prison should be a place where offenders develop both practical trade and employability skills.
Learning in prison should be embedded in inspirational workplaces, where a normal working day is aspired to.
