About | Bent Bars Project
http://www.bentbarsproject.org/about
The Bent Bars Project is a letter-writing project for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, gender-variant, intersex, and queer prisoners in Britain. The project was founded in 2009, responding to a clear need to develop stronger connections and build solidarity between LGBTQ communities inside and outside prison walls. About the Organising Collective. We directly link LGBTQ people across prison walls by matching LGBTQ people inside prison with LGBTQ people outside prison as penpal friends.

What is the Bent Bars Project about? How do I become a penpal? Can anyone become a penpal? Im interested, but not sure Im qualified enough. Why do I have to fill out a questionnaire to become a penpal? Im not lesbian, gay bisexual, trans, or queer. Can I still be a penpal? How long does it take to get matched with a penpal? How often should I write to my penpal? Ive been matched with a penpal, but I’m not sure what to write! How do I start my first letter? Is it ok to ask my penpal why theyre in prison?
