Contract History

Supporting information
Greenwich Association of Disabled People in early 2014 is starting a pilot Disabled Through the Gate programme to support disabled people leaving any of the three Greenwich prisons to resettle in the community anywhere in London. This project is also helping those who leave prisons outside of Greenwich to return to Greenwich.
