Buckley Hall was the fourth contracted out prison in the UK, and the first privately managed Category C establishment holding medium security prisoners. Originally a men’s prison, it changed to a closed female training prison in 2002. Three years later the decision was made to revert Buckley Hall to a male Category C prison, with the new prisoners beginning to arrive on December 5th, 2005.

Installed Solution
“With a chaplaincy team in place since 1974 and a chapel opened two years later, Gatwick Chaplaincy has been serving holiday-makers, business travellers and Gatwick Airport’s own staff for well over 35 years. Now very much a multi-faith chaplaincy, the move to provide inclusive facilities for worship and practising one’s faith was spearheaded by Anglican chaplain Canon Jonathan Baldwin.”
