Yesterday, The Princess Royal visited Bullingdon Prison to mark #HiddenHeroesDay , which celebrates those working in prisons and within the justice system.
HRH is Patron of Butler Trust, a charity dedicated to recognising outstanding practice by those working with offenders.
Celebrated #HiddenHeroesDay with staff sharing some goodies and a nice chicken curry. It a been tough on us all and they have deserved being celebrated as heroes. Thank you to #Butlertrust for their wonderful support.
Every year, HRH presents the Butler Trust Awards, which reward prison, probation and youth justice workers, whose dedication can often go unnoticed.
