Belong is a small charity that provides hope, rehabilitation and recovery for people who have committed crime or been victims of crime. We deliver restorative justice, mentoring and psychotherapy in young offenders institutions, prisons and local communities. We also provide training for prison officers and other criminal justice professionals. Belong is supported by a wonderful group of volunteers from a range of backgrounds, who provide assistance to people in prison and ex-offenders in the community.

On our Appeal you’ll hear from Callum who went to prison when he was 15 years-old. He took part in our PLAN A programme and turned his life around. He also participated in restorative justice, creative psychotherapy and mentoring sessions.

Our approach is to tackle the root causes of conflict and crime. By taking part in PLAN A young people make amends for their crimes, learn skills that can help them secure a job, access education and deal with mental health problems and previous trauma.

There are thousands of other young people in UK prisons who desperately need our support. Anything that you give will help provide support for children and young people who have committed crimes, so that they can build a more positive future.
