On Saturday 8th June 2024, Families Outside, the only national charity that works solely on behalf of families in Scotland affected by imprisonment, will be hosting Stronger Together: a free event for and with families affected by imprisonment. So that we get the content of the day just right, we’ve been working with our family planners to design the event and we hope that, in attending, you will feel more connected to other family members, learn more about support and opportunities for families affected by imprisonment, and have some fun!
We’d like to emphasise that our definition of families is broad. It includes those with and without children and those who may not be a blood relation but are still affected in some way. All individuals of any age, background, or circumstance affected by someone’s imprisonment will be welcome to attend. This is regardless of whether you are in contact with the person in prison.
If you have been affected by another person’s imprisonment in Scotland, this event is for you.
As well as meeting other families, there will be opportunities to engage with the wider Families Outside staff team and a select few professionals who will be there by invitation only.
When: Saturday 8th June 10am – 3:30pm
Where: Technology and Innovation Centre, Glasgow
We do not want costs to be a barrier for you joining us at this event. If you need support in this area, please don’t hesitate to email getinvolved@familiesoutside.org.uk to discuss ways we can help.
