Hiya do you have a direct email address? As im looking to do some voluntary work if possible.
Thanks Amiee
Hi,
We are an independent web site, with no connections to Brinford. I suggest you call the prison’s main switchboard and talk to the Head of Education who may be able to help you. You can get the phone number from the web site. Failing that contact their visitors centre, which are often run by volunteers. If that route isnt of interest to you your next stop could be the IMB at Brinsford. IMB’s throughout the country are looking for new recruits, and depending upon yoour experience and background this may be of interest to you.
Good Luck
Andy
Sorry I just sent a message and it looks like my email address was wrong as I looked back, so I have corrected it. I was enquiringly about a bricklaying tutor job
