What HMP/YOI Parc is
HMP/YOI Parc is operated privately under an HMPPS contract. Public debate about Parc has been intense; inspection and news writing are about conditions and safety, not a roll of names.
Book Parc on GOV.UK. A Cardiff booking will not get you through this gate.
Locating someone at HMP/YOI Parc
HMP/YOI Parc does not publish a landing list. Use GOV.UK Find a prisoner with name and date of birth. HMPPS only confirms the prison if the person consents. If they were in court today, wait until the next working day before you decide the form is wrong.
Visiting HMP/YOI Parc
Book HMP/YOI Parc through the national prison-visits service and the official GOV.UK page. You must already be on the visitor list. Session times change; we only reprint a timetable when we have fetched it from that page.
Getting to Bridgend
Bridgend station, then a taxi to Heol Hopcyn John. It is not walkable in a tidy way with children. Driving from the M4 is common; follow campus signs for visits, not deliveries.
