Do you know someone in prison? Are they being treated fairly (unlikely)? Do they need help in some form?

Our team supports countless individuals in prison nationwide with all prison related matters. Please do get in touch if you have any issues you may need support with. Dan 🌟

@joellhobson @hmpps Clear evidence of the damage that can be done when power is put in the wrong hands...

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

Due to circumstances beyond our control, and beyond the remit of humanity and common sense, it is with a heavy heart that we have to tweet you all bidding farewell.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@joellhobson @hmpps Their relentless lack of vision and common sense has led to the demise of what was a truly inspiration organisaiton. The Freshwood Group and our sister companies have helped countless individuals all over the country with their times in custody. A real shame... :(

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

We would like to thank ALL OF YOU AMAZING PEOPLE for joining us on what has been an incredible journey. It is just awful that this organisation will not be able to accompany you on it anymore. The powers that be have pushed us to beyond an operational capacity. So sad... 😢

Hello and welcome to all of our new followers.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@GethinUnlocks Indeed.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@ethicalgoldco We understand Dan was written to. However, as this issue is currently with his lawyers, it wouldn’t be appropriate for us to comment. We are all hoping for the right outcome. 🙏

@LisaMarieSavag4 @francescrook So sorry to hear this Lisa. Such powers should not be vested in the hands of mere probation officers. All it takes is for one not to like their service user (bias feelings) and the chances of recall are dramatically increased.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@CleanSheetUK_JG @SoniaCrozier @DavidGauke Thank you Jane. I am sure Dan would appreciate your thoughts.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

Our original Founder Dan is no longer permitted by his probation team to have any involvement with the businesses he has grown and loved so much, or face recall to prison. Tweets will now be from our team (but not Dan) as we try to continue his amazing work without him 😢

@CleanSheet_UK @xkon2ikon @marcustwo So wonderful Probation are shutting me down...

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@Outolunch100 @joellhobson @outofsync8 I intend to - got lots of support on this. Thank you.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@fmspear @ethicalgoldco @lucyfrazermp @SoniaCrozier I am confident Sonia and her team will help us here. It’s blindingly obvious my probation team are abusing their powers and have made a bad mistake. How can my old PO admit I told them, yet a new one try to shut me down? Clearly they need to talk to each other more!!!

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@xkon2ikon @marcustwo @CleanSheet_UK Absolutely - under our guidance and support - not one of our clients has reoffended or been recalled. All are leading productive, amazing lives.

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@xkon2ikon @marcustwo @CleanSheet_UK The whole system is a complete mess. How on earth can helping someone, legally and above board, be considered a reason to recall someone to prison?

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@fmspear @ethicalgoldco @lucyfrazermp @SoniaCrozier Staunch to the last 🌟🥊🌟

[The Freshwood Group @FreshwoodGroup]

@fmspear @ethicalgoldco @lucyfrazermp @SoniaCrozier So grateful for your help Faith. 🌟 Hopefully the right decision will be made and I’ll be allowed to continue to run what is an amazing business - one which supports the lives of countless people across the country.
