Your Chance To See For Yourself
Thinking of applying for a Longford Scholarship? Wondering whether you might make a suitable volunteer mentor? Wanting to attend the Longford Lecture but struggling to make the date or the journey there? In these films and testimonials we have commissioned for the website, we offer you the chance to do precisely that: from our Frank Talks, edited 20-minute versions of recent lectures, to the personal stories of those ex-prisoners we support. All in their own words.
Watch What We Do
Watch and listen as three of our Longford Scholars (including Justin, pictured above) talk about what a difference the trust’s support – including its mentors – has made. Or see how our scholarship programme works in practice.
