**About Us**:
Built in 1985 as a young offender institution, MP Stocken opened as a category C closed training prison. It has since expanded with new accommodation being added in 1990, 1997,1998, 2003, 2008, 2011 which has significantly expanded our roll. In addition, new workshops were built as part of the prisoner accommodation expansion to ensure that Stocken is able to offer purposeful activity to all of the prisoners in our care. MP Stocken has subsequently been re-rolled as a male category C training prison. We completed an expansion in 2019 taking our operational capacity to 1036

Practice Plus Group is a specialist provider of NHS services into prison healthcare across over 45 different prisons, young offenders and immigration removal centres. We believe in putting the patient first, regardless of the environment or their history. The prison population is one of the most vulnerable and challenged patient groups in society and the delivery of their health care is conducted within often difficult and demanding environments.

Practice Plus Group’s mission is **Access to Excellence**. Our core values are;
- we treat patients and each other as we would like to be treated,
- we act with integrity
- we embrace diversity
