2025 is the fifth year that John James Bristol Foundation has supported the 'Bristol Prevent At Risk Programme' run by Key4Life. Their 7-step model of rehabilitation addresses the root causes of offending, builds emotional resilience, provides skills to increase employability, opportunities to secure employment, and then provides ongoing support to sustain positive change.

About 20 young offenders go through the Bristol programme each year where they receive mentoring and training to enable them to lead meaningful lives.
