Sheffield MU has links with HMP Moorland Prison and set up a children's play are to allow visiting parents have quality time with their partners and then the children to have contact with their father. Unfortunately have not been able to help in the Prison Play Area due to Covid regulations.
PACT (Prison Advice and Care Trust) , continues their invaluable work whilst Sheffield Diocese decided to move in a different direction.
Every prisoner would receive a Christmas card each year as part of our outreach, written by members. We have also involved members in making small knitted or material Christmas Tree Decorations which grace the tree in the visitors’ area. Members were so very generous and rose to the challenge with enthusiasm! Eleven hundred cards were written this year and delivered at the beginning of December. Although sounding a daunting task there is never any problem finding willing members who will take cards to write, and it means such a great deal to the recipient. Last January we received some wonderful letters from prisoners showing their appreciationfor last years cards.
