Adam’s life, once marked by instability and imprisonment, has been transformed into one of opportunity and belonging. With the support of Junction 42, Adam has found community, employment, and purpose. Here’s part of his story: Junction 42 exists to see the lives of offenders and their communities visibly transformed through support, empowerment, and opportunity. In 2022, Benefact Trust awarded Junction 42 a £90,000 grant for their Stories of Hope project - an initiative that provides interactive in-cell packs to prisoners, aiming to bring about transformational rehabilitation. 🎥 Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/phSriw7v7Ig To find out more about Junction 42, visit: https://www.junction42.org/ To find out more about Benefact Trust, visit: https://www.benefacttrust.co.uk/ (fb)
