Hi

A bit of background we got the knock by a vigalaty group Feb 2022. He is now in prison and is due for reliese in April 2023.

We have twin boys who are 2 now. Whilst he's in prison he's on what they call a level 1 so he can not see the boys. But was allowed to all the time he was on bail.

Would like for him to come home on his reliese and live as a family again but seems this is not possible.

I am really confused with all these restrictions

Hi,

I don't have any knowledge of levels in prisons I'm afraid so I can't advise on that. What were ss views prior to and post sentencing. It would be wise to arrange alternative accommodation for when he is released and perhaps email ss stating that he is due for release and you would like to discuss contact and moving forward as a family unit. Make sure you have a safety plan written up for contact and for if he is going to be living with you so you're prepared and they can see that you have thought everything through xxx

I'd suggest he reaches out the the resettlement team in the prison and his prison probation officer. They maybe able to arrange alternative accommodation and I think this would also trigger the SS involvement that is required in relation to the children - Although from what we've seen on here, it is very unlikely he'd be allowed home immediately.
