Prisoners Abroad's film, 'The impact of long term imprisonment', has been entered into the 2026 Smiley Charity Film Awards in the longform £500,000 - £5 million category.

The film features three family members - Cath, Angie, and Sarah - talking frankly and emotionally about the imprisonment of their relative and the hidden burden placed on them, as well as our Director of Prisoner and Family Support, Laura Bevan, who discusses the kind of support we can provide to family members and those in prison.

"The umbilical cord might be cut, but the heart cord is never cut - ever." - Sarah, whose son is in prison in the USA
