We provide Life Changing mentoring support to people affected by their involvement with the Criminal Justice System here in the UK. Our suppoort is both emotional and practical and is available to people in the community and ‘through-the-gate’ for people leaving custody, throughout the London area. We also run behavioural change programmes, helping people involved in crime to make better decisions and reduce the number of people who re-offend, improving lives, lowering crime rates and reducing the cost to the tax payer.
We know that people will only change if they want to. We listen in order to understand the reasons that people offend in the first place, then provide help to enable them to create new lives, free from the anxieties of their past.
“I’ll be honest, I thought it was just another ‘empty promise’ service, but you guys delivered. It was like being heard for the first time. Blew me away.
John
“I felt like I just needed a little help and then I met you guys and it was like, I actually could use quite a lot of help and you honestly came through for me. Thanks!” Nick
“Getting help through the gate from The Reasons Why Foundation meant that I didn’t have to do it alone and you understood what I’d been through, it was so helpful I can’t quite explain it. Cheers.” Oliver
“I’d spent years carrying this weight around, feeling ashamed everytime I went for a job interview. Then literally in minutes, you lot showed me I didn’t need to worry about it anymore. Amazing, honestly changed my life ” Brian
“I came to you with lifelong bad habits that have eaten away at every relationship I’ve ever had, I thought I was a lost cause. You lot didn’t get phased though, you were solid from the off and stuck with me. Appreciate you, I really do.” Simon
"You are the first to actually give a shit, properly listen and keep your word! You got me an interview and even took me to it. You took me to my CSCS test and keep in touch. Talking with someone who really understands has made such a difference to me since I came out. Amazing" David
“Thanks for believing in me, that simple thing, just knowing you saw more in me than I saw when I met you, made all the difference. My kids are pleased too!” Lucy
“The journey hasn’t been an easy one if I’m honest, but it was made possible by the support and listening I got from you guys, Life-Changer for sure. Love that!”
