The Clink Charity remains unique in UK prisons operating restaurants open to the public, an award-winning bakery and Clink Events, a prestigious operation serving the City of London from Downview women’s prison in Surrey. We also train in 33 prison kitchens and 2 Clink Gardens.

Our mission is to reduce reoffending which we do through training and intensively supporting people in and leaving prisons for careers in hospitality, food production and horticulture.

By providing education and training and through supporting people into employment post release, we reduce reoffending. In 2023 we trained over 800 people in prison and delivered 550 NVQ qualifications.
