Southwark Kent 'Just People' Roadshow: 'I was in Prison...'
The Prison Advice and Care Trust will be holding a 'Just People' Roadshow specifically for parishes in Kent on 4th February 2023, and warmly invite all clergy and parishioners to join them.
Hear from Pact CEO Andy Keen-Downs and local Prison Chaplain Fr Gary Dyer.
PACT, the Catholic prison charity, welcomes you to a lively and inspiring day of learning, reflection, and action ideas.
PACT believes that everyone can make a fresh start, whatever they have done. We may rarely talk about prisoners and their families yet around 90,000 children in England & Wales will go to bed tonight without mum or dad because they are in prison.
Come and find out more about people in our community who are affected by imprisonment. Hear from prisoners and their families what life is like, including after prison. The event will also offer an opportunity to consider simple ways in which both individuals and parishes can help.
We extend a warm welcome to all including those who have lived experience of the criminal justice system.
PACT will provide refreshments.
The event is on Saturday 4th February between 10 am - 1.30 pm
Venue: Holy Family Church, Bicknor Road, Maidstone, ME15 9PS
