Perth Visitors Support & Advice Centre
Support, advice and friendship for families visiting Perth Prison.
Welcome! If you need further information please email us @ PerthVisitorsCentre@crossreach.org.uk.
We are primarily here to support families of prisoners, some of whom may have travelled a long distance.
Our centre is a warm and welcoming place to relax, with a play area for children. Our staff and volunteers can offer non-judgemental help, advice, and emotional support. And of course, we have plenty of refreshments for everyone.
Office hours
Our service is available in the waiting area of the prison from:
Tuesday to Friday: 12pm – 7pm.
