Our aims are that residents and local people have increased work skills and qualifications, to increase sustained and positive employment for residents and local people, and that all employment outcomes reflect ClwydAlyn’s ‘People’ priorities e.g., living wage, diverse staff reflecting the communities we support.

Case Studies
Inmates at HMP Berwyn were involved in a partnership project with Williams Homes to develop a workshop that produces ready-made housing panels for housing developments, providing employment training for inmates.
‘’ I have worked in the modular housing workshop within HMP Berwyn for around 14 months. I have learned valuable skills that I can now use within the community upon release such as working with a wide range of tools and to be able to communicate and work alongside others. Being in this workshop has also helped me stay clean from drug use which was a massive problem for me prior to coming to prison because I am busy working, I now feel part of a team and that I can contribute to helping Williams Homes as they have helped me.’’ – Prisoner A
