Training in Prison

Training in prison

Partnered with Novus we operate in a number of prisons in Greater London and beyond.

Our first was in HMP Brixton and we now operate centres in HMP’s Isis, Wandsworth and Pentonville. We would not be able operate without the support and donations of our partners such as Encon, Landsec, and Knauf. These prison training centre models demonstrate the commitment of employers in the sector to train and support people into work in response to the huge need for employees in the construction industry.

“I was very impressed by the facilities you have at Brixton and by the rigorousness of the training and support systems. A great model for rehabilitation.”

— Charles Bland, Chair of the Belpech Trust
