Edinburgh Positive Wellbeing Service  

If someone in your family has gone to prison or is affected by involvement with the criminal justice system, it can be very hard to deal with all your thoughts and feelings. It can help to talk to someone who can listen to you and help you to understand what has happened and how you feel. The Edinburgh Positive Wellbeing Service can offer support to you and your family with one to one and/or group support in a space at home, in the community or at one of the bases. They also host drop-in sessions throughout the week at the HMP Edinburgh Visitor centre.
