Petition Action

To stop the proposed Female Offender centre development in Bridgend & Porthcawl

Petition Details

To stop the proposed Ministry of Justice plans to house women offenders in a newly-designed offenders residential unit. Both on Porthcawl waterfront at the Atlantic Hotel, or at Sunnyside House in Bridgend Town.

Additional Information

We understand the need for one of these facilities in Wales but we believe that Bridgend is unsuitable. Due to the fact that we already have a number of similar facilities and to add another would be to the detriment of both residents and the offenders.
