Our vision is a justice system that can recognise, understand, and respond to trauma. Our mission is to redesign the justice system for women & their children.
At @OSTCharity we are deeply concerned by the role X plays in the spread of disinformation, hate and violence. We have stopped using X to post about our work. Please follow us via Linkedin https://t.co/tVfnqXl3fB Insta https://t.co/tkMPoA7MEh Newsletter https://t.co/fgYv3DC9S4
When setting up the much needed Women’s Justice Board @ShabanaMahmood would do well to embrace the many fantastic ‘doers’ out there such as @Anawim_BCW @TheNelsonTrust@OSTCharity to name but a few. She needs to avoid the hand wringers and talk shop professionals.
We welcome @ShabanaMahmood ‘s announcement on the creation of a #WomensJusticeBoard. We know that prison tears women's lives apart & we are proud to have stood with @weareNWJC & partners calling for this vital new approach to reducing the number of women in prison.👇

Women’s centres & specialist orgs will be needed more than ever when 1700 people are released early to elevate pressure on prison places. Additional, sustainable funding will be vital to enable orgs to meet the increase in demand for support #funding ➡️ https://t.co/povDb0hVZp
