Brighten up their day!!

For many in prison, there is nothing special about days like Birthdays or Anniversaries. Bridging the Gap (BTG) plans to brighten up prisoners' special days and that is where your help is essential.

Just register with BTG and an inmate will be assigned to you. BTG will pass details of the special occasion(s) for which your inmate would like a card. A minimum of one card per year and a maximum of 6.

After reading the Rules below you must tick the box to say that you agree to them. Then you register electronically as there are no downloadable forms for this scheme. You will be given a unique reference number to use in any correspondence.

NB. BTG cannot guarantee that your allocated inmate will choose to celebrate any particular day(s).
