Prison Information

The Prison Information section has been designed to make it easy to find prisons and understand how they work..

We have developed an online tool that will help you locate a prison and find details such as visiting times and travel directions. If you are interested in working for the Prison Service, information on current employment opportunities within each establishment can also be found here.

This section also provides an overview of how standards are monitored and managed across the Service.
