An update on social visits – 1st December 2020

Please check this website for the latest information as our telephone lines are very busy at this time.

We're pleased to confirm that we will be able to re-open social visits when national COVID-19 restrictions end. Visits will be available from tomorrow (Wednesday 2nd December) and our residents can apply for visits using our kiosk system. 

Please remember that we need to follow social distancing rules at all times and this will mean: 

• Only 10 visits can be held in the visits hall at one time 
• All visitors aged 11+ must wear face coverings for the whole of their visit (unless medically exempt)
• Physical contact with residents is not allowed. We know this will be very hard, but we must obey government guidance to keep both you and your loved ones safe
• Residents are allowed a maximum of three visitors at a time - either one adult and two children or two adults and one child (three adults is not permitted). Visitors must be family members and from the same household. 
• If you live in a Tier 3 area, you will not be able to visit a resident at HMP Bronzefield at this time. 

An update on legal visits - 14th September 2020

Legal visits are now available at HMP & YOI Bronzefield. If you are visiting the prison for a legal meeting, please read our latest guidance here. 

Fewer slots will be available but legal visits will be longer to accommodate the additional COVID-19 checks required. Please check our 'Visiting the Prison' page for more information on how to arrange a visit.
