Thank you to Ed Cornmell and staff HMYOI Wetherby for taking time out of their valuable day to give me a guided tour on behalf of Assn of YOT Managers Really appreciated the opportunity to speak to such dedicated staff, and explore challenges & opportunities going forward.

Young adults on remand have told us that they find the legal process confusing and unfair.
With Barrow Cadbury Trust 🧡’s support, we created a guide to help young adults better understand their rights and how they can access support.
