Upside Throughcare
@upsidescotland.bsky.social
Upside is a national throughcare service, available in all parts of Scotland. Upside provides people in short-term custody, or remand with the practical and emotional support they need to transition to community life.
Upside staff made a massive effort yesterday to ensure - as far as possible - people were not left unsupported as a result of the first Emergency Early Release. Huge thanks to them all for their dedication and resilience on such a challenging day.

It's six months today since we launched Upside. So far we have taken over 500 helpline calls and supported more than 1100 people leaving prison all across Scotland. This is vital help for people returning to their communities; prepared, supported and safe. buff.ly/YiPXWrA
