We aim to provide you a safe, independent, pleasant environment where you can be treated with dignity and respect, and offered information, help and support.

 

The Centre is currently run in partnership with the charity Pact (the Prison Advice and Care Trust), whose staff and volunteers you will meet and deal with when you visit.  The John Sandy Trust has a number of Trustees who monitor and review the ongoing operation of the Centre.

 

In 2014 the volunteers at this Visitors’ Centre were awarded the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service for their outstanding contribution made to the friends and families who visit HMP Featherstone, this is the MBE for volunteer groups.

 

We hope that you will find the Visitors’ Centre a place of welcome, where you will find a friendly face and any advice or information that you require.
