Join ClinksDoing What Really Matters (DWRM) works with universities to offer a much wider range of degree courses than are currently available to students in prison. We focus on the provision of study materials, tuition and greater participation in a learning community so as to properly engage students.
As there is currently very limited support for prisoners on release, this tends to mean students are unable to complete their course or sit the required exams. We bridge that gap by providing post release support to enable students to attend university campus to complete their degree. We also provide specialist employability support and mentoring to people leaving prison.
