We are the Prison Radio Association - a small but mighty charity, and now officially the UK’s leading podcast network 🤯
And we didn’t just take gold…we filled the whole podium! 🥇🥈🥉
To the @britpodawards, thank you for recognising our work on such a monumental platform!
In a broadcasting first, the BBC followed an HMI Prisons team as they inspected a category C men's prison.
Their documentary sets out to provide insight into the process of inspection, and the problems faced by the prison system.
Listen at 8pm, 16 September on BBC Radio 4.
Working on NPR isn’t just about learning to make great radio - it’s about building confidence, self-belief, and the tools to express yourself 🧠
100% of the people we worked with last year told us they felt more confident and had higher self-esteem after being part of the team.
📣 Our brand new podcast Outside In, is OUT NOW! 📣
Dip your ears into the world of National Prison Radio and listen to our first ever podcast produced and presented entirely by people who learnt their craft while working at NPR during their sentence.

@socio_plath @BBCRadio4 I was released from prison earlier this summer wearing an alcohol tag. It takes a sweat sample every 30 mins and checks it for alcohol. Then it sends the results to my probation officer. It’s called Secured Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring, or SCRAM.
🎧 Why was Caroline's probation officer the perfect person to help her turn away from crime after prison?
Probation has been through a lot of changes over the past decade. @ProbationRes is looking to the future. Caroline is helping them.
