WINNER:

The Clink Charity

The Clink Charity is thrilled to have been named as the winner of the Robin Corbett Award 2026. After 16 years of delivering hospitality and horticulture projects in prisons that reduce reoffending by supporting returning citizens to gain education, skills, and employment support to reintegrate into society and shape for themselves a bright new future, this award offers recognition of the impact of our work. We are proud to serve our beneficiaries and to participate in The Corbett Network with Lady Val, bringing the best change-makers together to collaborate in reforming our prison and probation system.”

Highly Commended WINNER:

Coming Home

“Receiving the Highly Commended Robin Corbett Award is incredibly meaningful for me, as founder. There was a time when many people saw only my mistakes and not my potential. Today, I have the privilege of supporting women who are navigating that same journey, that same stigma. This award is a reminder that people can and do change, it’s never flawless or faultless but when we invest in dignity, opportunity and belonging, everyone benefits and it is so so worth it,”

Our commercial tree nursery programme creates hope, pride and purpose for people in prison through meaningful skills, opportunities and genuine second chances, whilst also tackling environmental challenges. At the heart of our work is collaboration, bringing prisoners, prisons, industry, government and communities together to create lasting social and environmental change.
