Sycamore Tree (ST) is a Restorative Justice course that teaches the principles of restorative justice. It is taught in prisons in groups of up to 20 learners by PF volunteers.

This training day focuses on the role of a group facilitator.

“I can honestly say that I never had as much satisfaction when I worked as I do now as a volunteer.” — Arthur, Chaplaincy Support volunteer

Volunteer with PF

Volunteers are the life-blood of our organisation, and what they do in the lives of those in prison and as they pray, is incredibly valuable. If you are looking to use your time to support some of the most marginalised people in our society to transform their lives, then volunteering could be for you.
