Looking back over the last couple of months, we’ve written up a few examples of the people we’ve helped.
We hope they give a good idea of how we help people.
However, more importantly than our role, we think that these examples show how people with convictions are able to overcome some of the barriers that have been put in their way due to their criminal record.
We’ve posted the examples as case studies in the support section of our website:
Davina – Challenging the reasons for redundancy
Alan – A surprise that it’s spent – and a security badge!
Alistair – Proving to an employer that it’s spent
