When a person goes into prison or probation service, they should remember this. HMPPS have very high standards; prisons, or sometimes individual wings, often don't reach a high enough standard, negatively impacting men's and women's safety and well-being. Wrong is wrong even when everyone's doing it. Right is right, even if no one is doing it. Endeavour to promote positive change and improve services and standards by being the example of what is right is right! We can all be changemakers to make a positive difference and produce better outcomes for individuals. The criminal justice system should only foster respect, never contempt. This is anti-rehabilitative and promotes repeat trauma. Compassion should be at the heart of our criminal justice system.

This 👇🏽 changes lives for women and children, for the whole community. We know what works, we know how to deliver effective support that lead to positive outcomes for women being charged. We know how to ensure both women and the public are safe and reduce reoffending. The government and justice agencies know and agree too: the Ministry of Justice UK and the #police #NPCC and the Crown Prosecution Service and the #magistrates and the #courts all agree with #charities: 👉🏽 community support at the earliest point for women changes lives, where #prisons fail 👉🏽 early intervention and #diversion services for women changes lives, without the need for #courts interventions and saves public money The government needs to action the changes recommended by the #NWJC and its members with decades of expertise including #TogetherWomen Anawim Advance Birth Companions #onesmallthing
Along with our National Women's Justice Coalition partners, we've responded to the Sentencing Council's consultation on guidelines for community and custodial sentences. Our key points are: 🚨 Specialist women's services play an essential role in supporting rehabilitation and preventing reoffending 🚨 Judges/magistrates & probation staff should work with these services throughout the criminal justice process to ensure women get the right support and outcome for their individual situation 🚨 Women should almost always be diverted away from custody Read more 👇

In the face of staggering prison overcrowding, our proven rehabilitation model emerges as a beacon of efficiency and transformation. While a £1 million Government spend currently covers the cost of keeping just 21 offenders in prison for a year, envision the impact of the same investment with Tempus Novo, which would propel 1100 graduates into employment. The contrast is stark: 21 imprisoned ❌ versus 1100 lives transformed ✅. Our model not only offers a solution to overcrowded prisons but presents a blueprint for societal change.

Prison is not Vegas. What happens in prison doesn’t stay in prison. When something happens in prison, it doesn’t stay within the walls; it ripples out to our families, neighborhoods, communities, and society. When we take care of the men and women living in prison through education, programming, healthy food, better access to mental health, trauma-informed principles, and compassion, this ripples out. When we harm the men and women living in prisons, this ripples out too. It’s in our best interest to take care of those living and working in prisons. The ripple effect is real. #RippleEffect #WhatHappensInPrison #CompassionInPrisons
