Catch22

Who we are

Catch22 is a social business, a not for profit business with a social mission. For over 200 years we have designed and delivered services that build resilience and aspiration in people and communities. 

Our 1600 colleagues work at every stage of the social welfare cycle, supporting 44,000 individuals from cradle to career. Today we deliver alternative education, apprenticeships and employability programmes, justice and rehabilitation services (in prisons and in the community), gangs intervention work, emotional wellbeing and substance misuse, and children’s social care programmes.

Our vision is a strong society where everyone has a good place to live, a purpose and good people around them. All Catch22 services deliver at least one (and often all three) of these. We call these our 3P’s.
