About us
Who we are
FINE CELL WORK is a charity and social enterprise committed to the rehabilitation of prisoners. Our aim is to support prisoners to finish their sentences with work skills, money earned and saved, and the self-belief to stop offending and go on to live meaningful, independent crime-free lives. We do this by training and paying them to do exquisite needlework to create beautiful products for sale. In our 25 years working in prison, we have supported over 8,000 prisoners. We also guide them towards training and support on release. At the Fine Works Hub, a London-based workshop, we run our Open the Gate programme which provides work experience, formal training and employment to ex-prisoners.
