The Hardman Trust

About us

The Hardman Trust is the only charity in England, Scotland and Wales focusing on the unique needs of people on long-term sentences.

Each year over 2000 people are released from prison after serving long sentences. We offer specialist, personalised support to help people on long sentences thrive both in prison, and when they return home.

The prison population is growing, and sentences are getting longer than ever.  This is happening against a backdrop of low staffing levels, and limited funding within a cost of living crisis.

We offer personalised support to people who have served 10 years or more in prison.  We help each person to plan and prepare for life on release, we follow up with the financial support to turn that plan into a reality, and we offer ongoing support to stay on track once back in the community.

Working with each person's unique goals, skills and circumstances, our work is tailored to the individual, and makes a lasting difference.

"The Hardman Trust have given me a chance, providing security for my family, and a real chance at rehabilitation."
