Rarely does an opportunity to make your mark and further your career come up like this. HMP Five Wells in Wellingborough is setting a new standard for new build prisons of the future, using forward-thinking design and technology. The Prison is the UK's first purpose-built, new resettlement Prison. After opening in 2022 it is a one-of-a-kind new generation category C new build Prison for the future and has become an integral part of the local community.
Care & Rehabilitation Services (CaRS) already successfully manages 4 prisons, one secure training centre and a number of community contracts in England and Wales. The philosophy of our prisons is to rehabilitate offenders and equip them to re-integrate into mainstream society on release. We seek to normalise prison conditions as far as possible to reflect life in the outside community. Our aim is to create an environment in which staff and prisoners feel safe.
