This Charter was developed by 9 young people aged 8-16 with a parent or family member in prison.
It has been written in conjunction with Barnardo's Bristol CSOF (Community support for offenders families service) workers. The Charter draws on a research project conducted by Dr Owen Gill in Devon which holds recommendations for children in families affected by parental imprisonment and the multi-agency professionals who come into contact with them. Although this Charter has been developed by young people and workers in Bristol and supported by Bristol City Council, the statements are applicable across the country.
