'Send Christmas cards to prisoners overseas


Our Christmas Card Scheme is now open for 2022! By sending in handwritten cards for British prisoners overseas you will be helping to provide great comfort to those we are supporting around the world...


For British prisoners overseas, Christmas is often a time when hope is furthest away, with the arrival of the festive period being a painful reminder of how removed they are from family and friends. We are currently working with many hundreds of British prisoners who are facing spending Christmas alone in prison overseas, thousands of miles away from their loved ones.


Prisoners Abroad’s Christmas Card Scheme helps to reduce the isolation felt by British prisoners around the world at this particularly lonely time. This year’s scheme will be as important as ever because, although prison visits from abroad are now possible again thanks to the loosening of travel restrictions, the rising cost of living may mean that these trips are simply not viable for many of the family members we support.'

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
