Next Chapter: 2025-2026

Next Chapter is our peer-support community helping members build the confidence, resilience and life skills they need to overcome personal challenges and move forward.

As an extension of our mentoring support, Next Chapter is designed to encourage long-term desistance by creating a safe, supportive community where members can learn, connect and have fun together.

Each week, we come together for a range of activities, from workshops and talks led by partner organisations, to trips, staff-led sessions or simply catching up over a coffee.

This year we’ve written two songs with Finding Rhythms, played mini golf, learnt to make spring rolls, created collages, visited a petting zoo and Tate Britain, learnt about journalling, shared a Christmas meal and watched a Christmas film together.

Next Chapter is all about building relationships, trying new things and creating a community where people can grow together.
