Why we do what we do
Learn more about our cause
Open Gates will support prisoners and ex-prisoners through an employment and training programme with the aim of reducing re-offending. This is achieved through house clearance, and the selling of used and donated furniture in Glasgow.

Difference made so far
Individuals who have managed to break the cycle will use their experience to mentor and support other offenders to do the same. Operating as a social enterprise, the organisation will recycle and upcycle furniture and white goods and sell to the general public.
