Recreational Facilities
An important part of improving welfare, health and rehabilitation is the provision of recreational facilities in prisons. Most detainees will be provided with no facilities during which to spend a day. APP has provided what many would consider the basic necessities - playing cards or simple sporting equipment. APP sponsors sporting competitions, as way of promoting to the prison authorities what recreation can provide.
Needs raised by prisoners:
- Basic recreational facilities e.g. playing cards
- Sporting equipment
- Opportunities to take part in crafts
- Choirs and music sponsorship
- Toys for children in prison
