Working with conviction: Clinks seminar and Extraordinary General Meeting
25th July, Central London, free
3.30-5.30pm followed by a drinks reception
This evening seminar will celebrate and explore the ways in which people with convictions play a vital role in the work of the voluntary sector in criminal justice and beyond. Many organisations are user-led or actively involve their beneficiaries in the design and delivery of services and as volunteers, employees and trustees. This event will explore how we support people with convictions to contribute to the work of the voluntary sector.
The seminar will be followed by an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM). Clinks members will be asked to pass a resolution which will ensure that, under new automatic disqualification rules, Clinks can continue its commitment to involving people with lived experience of the criminal justice system in the leadership of its work.
Formal notice of the EGM can be found here.
Speakers include:
- Chris Stacey, Co-director, Unlock – the implications of the Charities Act automatic disqualification rules for involving people with convictions as trustees and senior staff
- Richard Davis-Lyons, Head of Recruitment, Working Chance – the experience of supporting people with convictions into employment
- Ryan Harman, Advice and Information Manager, Prison Reform Trust – providing opportunities for people on release on temporary licence.
