The Rescue of Dignity Group (ROD) group was established with the aim of supporting prison inmates throughout the UK both spiritually and physically, through letter writing and regular visits.
In many cases, it has been found that when inmates develop a faith and commitment towards God, they are empowered with higher self-esteem and their attitude towards themselves and others improves considerably. Many are ready to abandon a life of crime and embrace the concept of being better citizens in society.
Several inmates that ROD has been dealing with have been released or have had their sentences reduced due to changed behaviour and attitude within prison.
Referrals to ROD can either be via self or family/friends. All volunteer workers are assigned to write and visit individual prisoners.
Charles Ajorgbor who is the leader of the ROD group says: "Hardly a week goes by without a report or newspaper article on the increase and/or effects of crime. The ROD group's mission is to address the underlying factors that lead people into crime in the first place. It's a true pleasure when we see people turn their backs on a criminal lifestyle to build something positive for the future."
You can register an inmate that would like to benefit from ROD's services.
