We’re delighted to introduce you to a special opportunity to share the love of Jesus with some of the most forgotten members of our society-those behind prison walls.
In partnership with Prison Fellowship, we support the Letter Link Initiative, a powerful outreach that goes beyond a simple pen pal programme. It’s a ministry of encouragement, connection, and discipleship.
With your CBN UK Writer’s Pack in hand, you’ll write Spirit-led, handwritten letters to men and women in prisons across the UK-many of whom rarely receive personal communication. Your words will be a reminder that they are seen, valued, and loved by God.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:7-8

To help you get started, we’ve created a special CBN UK Writer’s pack – filled with resources and inspiration to support you on this meaningful journey of faith and compassion.
It includes notecards and envelopes for your first few letters, a journal and pen to capture prayers and reflections, a packet of Mustard seeds as a reminder to pray with patience, and simple writing guidance to support your letter-writing journey.
Prison Fellowship’s Letter Link initiative is a way for people who care about prison ministry to get involved, even if limited by availability, mobility, or location. Volunteers write monthly letters to men and women in prison.
No, Letter Link is a Prison Fellowship initiative. However, CBN UK is proud to partner with them to help expand its impact.
If you sign up through this page, CBN UK will provide you with a free writer’s pack – everything you need to get started with your first letters.
After that, you’ll be transferred to Prison Fellowship to complete their onboarding and training process.
Prison Fellowship ask that you to commit to writing at least one letter per month.
Some last six months, others up to six years – it varies depending on the individual relationship.
Yes. Prison Fellowship’s training is compulsory and lasts two hours. It covers everything you need to know before you begin writing.
If you pass the training, Prison Fellowship will connect you with a man or woman in prison, and you can start writing.
All letters are sent through the Prison Fellowship office. They are regularly checked by the Programme Administrator for security reasons
