Research is accumulating about the link between liver health and #mentalhealth. A fatty liver is not just from alcohol but can also be caused by a highly refined diet, high in sugar. Yet another reason for healthy diets to be prioritised in #prisonfood https://t.co/RucwHPpxd2

Issue 14 of #HerWellbeing is hot off the press and on its way to over 3000 women at 12 prisons across the @HMPWomensEstate!

We're particularly excited for our women to read about @parkrunUK @parkrun and learn how they can get involved🏃‍♀️

Delighted to hear from one of our readers at @HmpFostonhall about some positive changes to her #mentalhealth since regularly receiving the #HerWellbeing newsletter:

"I am a lot calmer and feel I don't get as angry as I previously did" 👏👏👏

In spite of efforts of food & catering professionals in prisons & the PS, price hikes of this magnitude will no doubt result in a deterioration in food.

As @BidfoodUK made clear, without additional gov funding, the "quality or quantity of food will decrease"

#inflation

[Food Matters Inside & Out @FMinsideout]

Important @BBCr4today feature with @BidfoodUK & @SBC_Event on rising food costs & effects on suppliers to public sector schools, care homes and hospitals.

This will undoubtedly also affect food in #prisons across the @HMPPS.

It’s broken isn’t it ? We’ve broken what we do with food . Pears grow in the U.K. They could grow in our gardens . We could walk out and pick them , wipe them and eat them . No chemicals , no processing , no plastic , no planes , no sell by dates . Just fresh fruit . God help us
