The Prisoners’ Advice Service is the only independent registered charity offering free legal advice and support to adult prisoners in England and Wales. We do this through our telephone advice line, letters clinic and legal outreach sessions, as well as providing information within the sector.
We do not accept Home Office or Prison Service money as this may affect our independence. The majority of our funding comes from charitable Trusts and Foundations.

The project will cover the costs of additional quality control checks on the draft Toolkits and the process of obtaining feedback from prisoners on their usability and appropriateness for the client group.
These additional stages of the process will improve the quality, readability and usability of the final Toolkits.
