Detention is often a time of great distress, taking the person imprisoned away from his family and friends and immersing him in an unknown environment.
In such a situation, a simple letter can be sufficient to lift the spirit of those detainees and ease the hardship through which they are going.
Former Guantanamo prisoner, Feroz Abbasi said: "The odd letter from a person I didn't know in the outside world gave me a lot of strength, particularly because I felt we had been abandoned by the world - especially the Muslim world."
Two detainees have recently expressed to Cageprisoners their wish to receive written support.
