Additional information
Low Moss is the newest establishment in the SPS estate, having opened in March 2012. The establishment replaced the dated prison accommodation that had previously occupied most of the site.
The prison’s design capacity is 784 and it manages male offenders on remand, short term offender (serving less than 4 years), long term offenders (serving 4 years or more), life sentence offenders and extended sentence offenders (Order of Life Long Restriction) primarily from the North Strathclyde.
The facilities include a link centre where offenders are able to deal with matters relating to employment, housing, social work, throughcare addiction services, etc. as well as facilities to help offenders address their re-offending and support them to re-integrate back into the community on their release.
