Finding out about 'home'

Next time you are in a shop buy or have a look through some of the magazines devoted to homes. There are a lot of them about, including magazines which take you inside the homes of celebrities. What impression of ‘home’ do you get from these magazines and what does it mean to get ‘inspiration’ for your own home from looking at the pictures? What might these magazines be missing?

Finding out about: Help for Homeless People

Navigating the pathways

From here, you can travel as a visitor through a number of pathways through the various cell-spaces finding out what it is like to be an inmate here.

Yellow journey

Word and text based. You can interact with what people are saying and discussing about unjust imprisonment now.

Blue journey

Focussed on bible study, prayer, worship, song and reflective story telling.

Green journey

Engage with pictures, external web and book resources, video clips and various activities, including cooking and eating a meal.

Pink journey

Personal commitments, reflection, and following Jesus more closely. The final pink space is the space where you may or may not be allowed to leave, where you can consider what you have learned, been surprised by, challenged by and assess how you might have changed.

You can mix and match your journey through the different spaces depending on what you would most like to explore, study or do.
