Raising money for The Prison Phoenix Trust

Charity Registration No. 327907

The Prison Phoenix Trust brings hope and healing to prisoners with the disciplines of yoga and meditation, based on silence and the breath. The Trust trains and supports qualified yoga teachers for work in prisons - in substance misuse, anger management and education programmes. Prisoners are invited to practise daily in their cells and supported by 150 weekly classes in 87 prisons in the UK and Ireland. The PPT encourages them with correspondence, free resource books, CDs, and quarterly newsletters, and also works with prison staff and officers in 20 weekly classes.

Please sponsor me to complete 108 Sun Salutations at the first ever Brixton Yogathon: 26th February 2012. All in aid of the Prison Phoenix Trust, supporting yoga and meditation in prisons.

I was inspired to do this when I did a day's training with the Prison Phoenix Trust. Also on the training was a former drug smuggler who was given a yoga book while serving a 10-year stretch in jail in Argentina. It completely changed his life and he's now teaching yoga in west London. You can read about him on my blog.

So thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
