Entrepreneurs Programmes.

These programmes are designed to provide a pathway to self-employment for one of the most disadvantaged groups in society. Each programme has been created to ensure the learner can complete it and receive a tangible outcome. There is also ongoing support from tutors and peers upon release from prison.

Promoting entrepreneurship

Inspiring Speakers

Success stories of people turning their lives around are powerful messages of hope for people in prison, and hearing from people with lived experience of the criminal justice system can help to inspire and motivate them to lead crime free, positive lives in the future.

Entrepreneurs Unlocked is proud to have commenced its ambassador programme back in 2023, and collaborates with people who have set up their own enterprises who now come back into prison to share their story of moving from criminality to successful entrepreneurs.
