Ruth Cadbury MP 💙 Claire Hubberstey Madeline Petrillo Uni of Greenwich Snug Architects Lilly PrisonPhilanthropist Thank you to all who joined us today UK Parliament to explore our learning on how we can create change for women in the #justicesystem & their children. #HopeStreet is one example of this - we urge decision-makers to invest in alternatives to custody across the country.

We were proud to today support our partner One Small Thing at a parliamentary reception to showcase how they used principles of #traumainformed practice & input from women with lived experience of the CJS to design #HopeStreet Claire Hubberstey Ruth Cadbury MP 💙 Lilly PrisonPhilanthropist

As the Coroner reports today on the death of baby Aisha in prison,this article by Lucy Bannerman powerfully explains why pregnant women should never be in prison. We risk the life of a child every time a pregnant woman is imprisoned. Shocking this is happening to 200 women each year

This is an absolutely heartbreaking read. Pregnant women should not be held in prison. Period. This has to stop. #justice #prisons

Huge congrats to all involved! 💥

The majority of women in prison have committed non-violent offences, and do not need to be there. We must stop unnecessarily sending women to a place that exacerbates mental ill health and increases the risk of harm, and focus on supporting them in the community.

Important new report out today from our friends Agenda Alliance with Changing Lives Public services take note, there is learning in this on how we can all do better for women with multiple unmet needs 👇👇 #TransformingServices

New HMI Prisons report once again highlights how prison is often unsafe & inappropriate for women, many of whom shouldn't be there. 👇
🔹 Women locked in cells for too long
🔹 Poor support for mental health difficulties
🔹 Too many women released without sustainable housing.

Join us for this year's #SafeguardingAdultsWeek conference.
