At Catch22, we work with a variety of partners to support our service users. Clothing Collective provides us with clothing gift cards we can distribute to our service users in our Commissioned Rehabilitative Services (CRS). These vouchers are incredibly valuable in that they give our prison-leavers who are struggling financially the freedom to spend their vouchers on clothing that suits their needs and preferences. One of our CRS team members says, “The clothing vouchers were really useful and appreciated by the two Service Users I gave mine to. I know one of mine used theirs to buy new bedding they really needed. Another service user, who has a long-term kidney illness and has lost lots of weight, used theirs to buy some new clothes, as his old clothes no longer fitted.” Clothing Collective have written a profile of us on their website, read it here: https://ow.ly/T2Tt50ThbZO
