The Prison Reform Trust (PRT) is an independent UK charity working to create a just, humane and effective penal system.

PRT was founded in 1981 to inform and influence public debate on prison conditions and the treatment of prisoners, amidst concerns about a projected prison population of 48,000 by 1984. With the prison population in England and Wales now exceeding 87,000 and projected to rise to over 100,000 by 2026, the charity remains as important to civic society today as it was then.

Our mission is clear: we are working to create a just, humane and effective prison system by influencing decision makers, opinion formers and the public to 1) reduce the use of prison; 2) improve treatment and conditions for prisoners; and 3) promote equality and human rights in the justice system.
