For over 65 years we have been helping adult men and women (18+) with convictions to transform their lives and thrive, believing that everyone deserves another chance, and with the right support, is capable of change. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We are particularly skilled in working with people who are deemed \u2018hard to place\u2019 and those with complex needs. This includes individuals who are subject to MAPPA (Multi Agency Public Protection Arrangements).<\/p>\n<p>Across the UK, in 21 geographical urban and rural locations, we can accommodate up to 500 clients within our registered care homes, hostels, community-based houses, and an Independent Approved Premises (delivered on behalf of HM Prison and Probation Service), offering tailored support to meet individuals\u2019 needs.<\/p>\n<p>During 2023\/24 we worked with a total of 722 clients who needed supported housing. When we include complex care clients, and those who engaged with our other services such as finance, benefit and debt, and accommodation advice, the total number of clients who engaged with Langley rises to more than 1778 during that year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Vision <\/strong>is a society where no-one is unfairly disavdavntaged because of their past.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Mission<\/strong> is to support people with convictions so that they reintegrate into society, live crime-free and thrive.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Values<\/strong> underpin the way everyone works at Langley.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"content\">\n\t<div class=\"content__container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"content__row\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content__column\">\n\t\t  \t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"content__image content__image--image-left\" src=\"https:\/\/micro.green-park.co.uk\/langleytrust\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/441\/2025\/12\/kevin.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>\u201cI was made to feel like a person by Langley and that made me become a person.
