Prison & Courts

Going to court can be a bewildering and sometimes frightening experience, whether you are a defendant, victim, witness or simply attending to support. 

Our Court chaplains want to make your visit to court as easily understood and as non- threatening as possible by offering non-judgmental emotional support, companionship and practical assistance.

Our Court Chaplains can:

• Explain court procedures and decisions
• Direct you to the right courtroom
• Advise where to get legal advice
• Arrange transport (if safety is a concern), accommodation and food support
• Arrange counselling and court-ordered alcohol and drug assessments
• Help you find accommodation when bail addresses are required
