Fantastic to welcome @CherieBlairKC to @HmpSend last week.

We discussed how we work with the prison to support mothers to stay in touch with their children. Maintaining family contact helps to keep women in prison safe and significantly reduces the likelihood they’ll reoffend.

Nutritionist @cattt_caro, Olympian @TGtomgeorge, @judith_packer & @imogenwalsh were at @HmpSend for Boats Not Bars.

3/5 women in prison serve less than 6 mnths. Through rowing & wellbeing sessions we're helping to develop a sense of hope & empowerment.

🍳It was a pleasure to welcome Chef @jonwatts88 to HMP Send where he led a cooking workshop for prisoners.

Jon reflected on his own journey & how employment supported him in turning his back on crime.

Having a job upon release is proven to help break the cycle of reoffending.
