The Clink charity launches Clink@Home takeaway / delivery service

The Clink Charity has launched a takeaway / delivery service at HMP Brixton called Clink@Home. This has enabled The Clink to keep the restaurant open during lockdown, keeping prisoners employed and allowing them to continue studying towards their qualifications.

Great @BBCNews feature showing the impact @TheClinkCharity has on reducing re-offending.

If you live within 5 miles of @HMP_Brixton please support #ClinkAtHome – you'll be helping prisoners to continue studying towards their @cityandguilds qualification. pic.twitter.com/Vtj9HmRd5W

Our Future Skills Commission for Prisons is all about innovation and finding practical ways to help people in custody develop valuable skills that will help them get a job on release. The Clink is a fantastic example of innovation in action, and they work with a fantastic group of people.
