Prisons and Enterprise - The Message | Christian Prison Work

Prisons and Enterprise


The Message is all about sharing the good news in word and deed with the hardest to reach people. One of the ways we do this, is by heading into prisons. But our work doesn’t stop at the prison gates. With multiple enterprises across the UK and the globe, we help those with significant barriers to employment turn their lives around.

The Message works in prisons across the UK, supporting men, women and young person right up to their release date. But we don’t want to stop there. Through our enterprises we provide jobs, training and discipleship to ex-offenders looking to turn their lives around. 

Knowing there was more we could do, over the years we’ve expanded our work to support those who have significant barriers to employment and need a helping hand. This includes those who may have struggled with an addiction, the homeless, refugees, the long-term unemployed, as well as people with additional needs. The impact on lives has been huge as people have found paths into long-term employment.
