The Salisbury Street Foundation (SSF) is a residential programme for men who have been involved in criminal offending and who have spent significant periods in prison. It aims to prevent further offending and to facilitate their safe integration into the community.
Salisbury Street Foundation provide services that create real social change. We are an organisation with a bold vision to create a safe and inclusive community where prison truly is the last resort. Our purpose is to strengthen the wellbeing of our communities by advocating for and delivering services which divert people away from the justice system.

We are dedicated to empowering residents to take control of their lives and shape their own futures. We strive to equip individuals with the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to overcome obstacles, make positive choices, and achieve their goals.
Respect
We believe in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual. We strive to create a safe and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and respected.
Social Connection
We believe in the power of social connection. We strive to facilitate meaningful relationships and
community integration. This includes organising group activities that encourage mutual support among residents and connecting residents with local support networks to foster a sense of belonging and purpose.
Growth
We prioritise providing opportunities for personal growth that help residents progress beyond past experiences. We pride ourselves on fostering a culture of continuous learning and development to help residents set and achieve new goals to aid their successful reintegration into society.
