Thanks to
all those people who have contacted us about sending gifts to Jeremy at Full
Sutton Prison this Christmas, and for his 54th Birthday on the 13th of January.
There
are currently restrictions on material that prisoners there can receive under
regulations so Please read all of the guidelines below. Every year many people kindly send gifts to Jeremy, many of which he is not allowed to receive.
Jeremy
will not be able to receive clothing, bedding, CD’s, pens, pencils,
packs of cards, folders or ring-binders, spiral bound paper, plastic wallets,
dividers, organic material, books, magazines or toiletries and the prison do
not make exceptions.
For
Jeremy's correspondence address, or if you are looking just to send a card or
letter please check out this page. If you write to Jeremy please
enclose a stamped addressed envelope.
Material
gifts that Jeremy would gratefully receive are as follows:
Stamps:
both small and large first or second class. You can send in strips, or books, as many as you wish but you must put your name and address in with them.
Packs of cards
For example, packs of notecards or thank you cards. You must take the cards from their original wrapping, and put them into an envelope with your name and address. You cannot send more than 12 in one batch, but you can send multiple batches if you wish.
Special Occasion Paper and Envelopes
For
example Jeremy sometimes uses the material on the following links below, but
any variety would be welcome.
Standard
Envelopes
: In
three sizes Jeremy sends out a lot of heavy paper documents and if they get wet
in the post thinner envelopes split open and the documents can be lost.
• DL White Peel
& Seal Envelopes (Tesco envelopes almost always split open).
•
C5
(A5) White or brown Peel and Seal;
•
C4
(A4) White or Brown Peel & Seal Envelopes;
•
A4 'Gusset' envelopes are permitted and Jeremy finds them helpful for
sending large bulky paper documents.
Please
do not send Jiffy/bubble padded envelopes as gifts as these are not permitted
but you can use them to send your gift in to
the prison with your name and address on the back.
A4
Refill Pads: Good quality of any brand but
simple tear off ruled pads with hole punches in the side which is handy for
filing, spiral bound paper is not permitted. We all know how Jeremy likes to
write letters and he gets through paper like it’s going out of fashion.
We
know the material that Jeremy can receive is very limited but you can keep in
touch with cards, drawings, paintings, letters and photographs. You can send in
news articles,print out's from the internet, photocopies of extracts from books, magazines (whole
publications are not permitted).
Get creative
with personalized greeting cards or paper. Prisoners at Full Sutton are now
allowed self images sent in to them but they are no longer able to have
photographs taken and sent out under MOJ guidelines.
Posting: WE
CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH that all letters and gifts must arrive with your name
and address inside or Jeremy will not be able to receive them and there are no
exceptions.
Larger packets containing envelopes/pads must have the senders
name and address on the back of the envelope.
If you wish to
write an anonymous well wisher note to Jeremy you can do so via our network and we will send it on to him.
If
you have a gift idea and you’re not sure if Jeremy will be able to receive it
please check with him directly or contact us before sending it.
Thanks for all
of your support. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all of us at the Campaign Administration.
