Reducing Reoffending
May. 9th, 2010 11:54 amI meant to link to this a week ago, but never got around to it.
It's an interesting article about the St Giles' Trust. - a charity that helps newly released prisoners.
An independent study has shown that the prisoners they work with have a re-offending rate 40% lower than the national re-offending rate.
That's an impressive figure. I sincerely hope that whatever government we end up with will support the work they do.
In the meantime, I'm off to make them a donation.
