BBC News - Wandsworth Prison: Rats and sewage unbearable, volunteer says bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
Answering @danielmgmoylan’s oral question (29 April 2024), Minister Lord Stewart reveals there are 33 prisoners still serving DPP sentences – #IPPs for children – who have never been released from #prison 🧵
Last week, the prison population rose by 148 people. By 2028, the population is projected to reach up to 114,800 and this sustained growth has contributed to the ongoing overcrowding in many of our prisons.
This is *shocking* I first revealed the fact that the prison service redacted all its latest random drug testing data a few weeks ago on this site. No takers. Now @MailOnline confirms that the state can't or won't reveal how bad our drugs problem is. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Underlying trend is about 100-150 more people enter prison each week than are released. MoJ can relieve pressure for a week or two by a burst of early releases but the maths is clear the system will hit operational capacity before enough new places come on stream

3K Followers 1K Following Reporter at the Daily Mail newspaper. Ex crime at the Telegraph; PA. LUFC fantasist. Runner.Held interviews at HMP FossWay this morning, large C Cat prison holding 1700 men. Very impressive prison the PEL is brilliant with a great team and employment hub. 10 men interviewed today hopefully we can offer most of them roles with us they did very well in their interviews.
Join me this Thursday for a co-hosted seminar with SL5 Legal on "Preparing your Client's Case Before the Parole Board." There's still time to sign up for this 3-hour seminar, which will provide you with the hottest tips on all the steps you should consider.
There are a few tickets remaining for the first joint No5 and SL5 Legal seminar ‘Preparing your client’s case before the Parole Board’ on 25 April 2024 2pm-5pm hosted at No5’s, London Office at Savoy Court. linkedin.com/events/prisonl…
@SecretParole Hopefully covering that also in seminar two: advocacy !
Interviews held at HMP Kirkham today an open prison. Interviewed 5 men hope we can get them into work upon release. Trying to help change lives one at a time..
Spent today at HMP Lancaster Farms interviewing men for roles at Iceland Foods. Interviewed 8 men 7 for driving roles and 1 for a retail assistant including another Army Veteran. Hopefully they will all start work in the next couple of months in our second chance initiative
Just met a young man who took us up on the offer of free dry cleaning for his interview clothes…and got the job!
In the first seminar we will be discussing: the different types of cases before the Parole Board, the Board's powers, the legal tests for release and open conditions, how to actively prepare your case, requests for release/oral hearings and common issues that may arise.
There is just one week to go before our first Prison Law seminar on the 25th April. Register using the link below. linkedin.com/events/prisonl…
Visiting HMP Onley this morning to deliver an inspiration talk to around 50 of the men, then carrying out some interviews for employment with us through Iceland foods second chance initiative-what happens without a second chance? Mostly prison again or even worse. Hope is needed
Very pleased and proud of one my clients who received a letter from #ParoleBoard agreeing to suspend their supervision. One of the best work calls I've made. I'm proud of them all their hard work. #IPP #Probation #Rehabilitation
Great day today interviewing men in HMP Wealston - 6 interview and hopefully 6 employed trying to bring hope and change to lives.. linkedin.com/posts/ian-will…
@AlbertoCostaMP You shouldn’t be shocked at an independent body making objective decisions - you just don’t like the decisions it’s making. That doesn’t mean you get to keep trying to game the system into getting the decision you want.
@AlbertoCostaMP Alternatively, leave the Board to get on with its job - meddling by politicians is what got us to this point in the first place.
Productive first meeting in my new role with @MoJGovUK Edward Agar MP this week - discussing the significant challenges facing probation and how @HMIProbation can help services rise to that challenge, and shine a light on the pathway to success.
I am delighted to be here at HM Inspectorate of Probation and look forward to sharing more about the role and my future plans soon.

Non-released IPP prisoner sentenced aged 20 to a minimum tariff of 42 months now being released. Tariff expired in 2008. 16 years post tariff. Panel anxiously scrutinised the case recognising flaws in some of the recommendations being advanced. One happy client! 🥊🥊🥊
My younger two (8 and 9) have decided to use their new laminator to make laminated bookmarks for their teachers and friends then hopefully sell some for charity (10p bargains!) - it’s too cute (particularly love their one for Howard the band teacher!) 😍
