FRIENDS OF ERLESTOKE PRISON
This charity is no longer on the register, removed on 7 August 2023. A removal is usually a charity that wound up, merged, or fell below the income threshold, and is not in itself a finding against anyone — but an appeal still quoting this number today is quoting a charity the Commission no longer registers.

What it does
The charity works in partnership with HMP Erlestoke to support offenders and their families, providing programmes which are proven to support offender rehabilitation but which are beyond the scope of prison budgets; currently art, origami, yoga and drama classes. The charity also runs a transport scheme for prisoners' families on visit days offering lifts to and from the station and the prison.
