Our Core Services
Our day to day work involves supporting families in the courts, community and prisons and providing information leaflets and resources to support families and professionals. But we also have specialist projects running and love to work in partnership to better support the families we work with. Please see details below.
Training
Our SPF training suits all budgets, we provide two differing rates – charity/schools and another for statutory bodies, either face-to-face or online training.
We regularly provide “Hidden Sentencing” training to probation staff, teachers, social workers and charities. If you want to have a thorough, interactive session with one of our trainers, to understand the complexities of life for prisoners’ families, please do get in contact today with clem@sussexprisonersfamilies.org.uk
Getting Through
Sussex Prisoners’ Families have won its second year of funding for the Getting Through project in partnership with Sussex Police, running from April 2025 to April 2026.
We support family members with emotional support, when their loved one has been arrested for accessing online child sexual content. We offer a non-judgemental and listening space for those going through this trauma.
We thank funders The Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner, we couldn’t do this work without you.
