To raise awareness of, and promote the services that NEPACS offers and provide emotional support and information for families of defendants /prisoners who are facing anxiety, confusion and stigma. Families of defendants /prisoners often say they feel isolated in the community and lose their confidence in coping with changing circumstances This might include sharing general information about the prison and visiting arrangements or allowing a family member time to ‘off-load’ about concerns they may have along with working with probation, courts staff and legal representatives.

Volunteers will also offer a Telephone Support Service aimed to help individuals at whatever stage of the process they are at, to build up their confidence by providing a listening ear and, where appropriate, encouraging them to seek help from other services both within Nepacs and from external agencies.
