- St Vincent: HIS MAJESTY’S PRISON ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TREAT
As part of our rehabilitation mandate, and in an effort to encourage and reward good behavior amongst our prison inmates, the annual Christmas treat will commence at His Majesty’s Prisons and the Belle Isle Correctional Facility, and will run as follows:
From Wednesday, December 13th, 2023, to Tuesday, January 2nd, 2024, inmates at all facilities will be allowed snacks and fast-food items from their relatives and friends on weekdays only, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. These can include (KFC, Subway, Roti, etc).
On Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day, between the hours of 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, home cooked meals including cake will be accepted along with non-alcoholic beverages (Malt, Coco Cola, Hairoun soft drinks, etc). Please note that no homemade beverages will be accepted.
Persons interested in bringing items for inmates during this period are kindly asked to contact the Prison Department prior to dropping them off as to ascertain that the inmate is eligible for these privileges, as inmates who are in breach of prison regulations will not be allowed to benefit from this initiative.
Please note that ALL meals are subject to standard security checks and MUST be brought in disposable containers.
