The Adult Learning Services’ newest addition, the Community Development (CD) Team includes a dedicated Ex-Offender support service which, in line with the rest of this project, provides an education advice outreach service.
The aim is to engage and keep ex-prisoners in learning and training to break their cycle of crime. As well as working with ex-prisoners in the community, our Ex-Offender Outreach Worker, Alison Kakande, makes regular visits to prisons, both in and out of London, to meet inmates who will be returning to Hackney on release.
