ABOUT HMP ISLE OF WIGHT

HMP IW is a category B establishment that offers rehabilitation opportunities for male residents 21+. The establishment is split across two sites – Parkhurst and Albany.  The primary location of this role will be at Parkhurst.

HMP Isle of Wight was opened in April 2009; it was formed by the clustering of three former establishments HMP Parkhurst, HMP Albany and HMP Camp Hill. In March 2013 the Camp Hill site was decommissioned as part of an ongoing programme to modernise the prison estate and further reduce the costs of prison. HMP Isle of Wight's present role is a category B male training prison. The prison holds approximately 1100 prisoners on two sites with a central administration.

Albany: Occupies the site of a former military barracks on the outskirts of Newport, Isle of Wight, designed and built as a category C training prison in the early 1960s. Security was subsequently upgraded. From 1970 to 1992, Albany was part of the dispersal system. It then changed to its present role as a category B training prison with an integrated population of vulnerable/sex offenders, a small number of un-convicted adult male prisoners awaiting trial at courts on the Isle of Wight plus prisoners from the other site in the inpatient health centre.
