There is currently no mechanism to identify, let alone, support children when a parent goes to prison. We provide a holistic, tailored package of support, enabling children to mitigate the impacts of their parent's imprisonment - raising aspirations and breaking the cycle of intergenerational harm.

Story

What do you picture when you think of Christmas? Time spent with loved ones, presents, and a lovely meal?

These are tough and challenging times for everyone at the moment, but especially for children and families impacted by parental imprisonment.

An estimated 312,000 children will spend this Christmas missing their parent, who is in prison. They will experience feelings of loneliness, isolation, and stigma.

These Christmas Cards were designed and created by children we support. A minimum donation of £8 will mean that you receive a pack of 16 Christmas Cards, 4 of each winning design. Please ensure you tick the box and consent for us to be able to email you and arrange delivery

Your support will go towards supporting children and families impacted by parental imprisonment. This will combat feelings of isolation, improve emotional wellbeing, and make young people and their families feel special at what can be a difficult time of year.

"Cinderella has been to the ball. Thank you so much for the beautiful gifts, Sarah and CHAS. The amount of work, time and effort that went into this is just staggering. You really are an amazing team. Our princess has loved being a princess for the day."

- Feedback last Christmas from a mother of one girl supported by CHAS, aged four.
