Aspire Oxfordshire provides specialist support to people who are in custody or have recently left prison to find employment, training, work experience, or education. They offer a range of support projects, including Restart Thames Valley, which aims to work with over 350 prison leavers as they move on from Bullingdon and Bronzefield prisons, improving access to stable accommodation, mentoring, training, job readiness and employment opportunities, support networks and place-based community interest groups, with ‘meet at the gate’ support. Aspire also provides Peer Support to prison leavers to sustain their rehabilitation through the Reconnect Programme, in partnership with the NHS Liaison & Diversion Service.
