Custody
What if I'm in custody or leaving custody?
Whilst you are in custody, we will:
Visit you in prison at least once every 8 weeks up at least until your 21st birthday;
Send you £5 per week up to the age of 21 to spend on essential items in prison as long as you are engaging in regular visits/pathway plan reviews with your leaving care practitioner;
Make sure there is a clear plan with you and your network about what will happen when you are released e.g. where you are going to live and what support you will need.
Once you are released from custody we will:
Come and pick you up from prison on your day of release and take you to where you are going to be staying going forward, if you would like us to;
Continue to regularly speak or meet with you and your probation officer, to make sure you are getting all the support you need from them.
