Consultation: neurodiversity in the criminal justice system
2pm-4pm, 25th February | online | free
Clinks wants to hear from voluntary sector organisations who work with people with neurodiverse conditions who are in contact with the criminal justice system, both in prison and in the community.
Response to the Education Select Committee inquiry 'Education: Are prisoners being left behind?'
Clinks submitted written evidence to the Education Select Committee’s inquiry into prison education. Our response focuses on the vital role the voluntary sector plays in delivering education, training and learning support in prison.
Notes from the Residential Women’s Centres draft specification event
Clinks facilitated an event on behalf of the Ministry of Justice to update the voluntary sector working in criminal justice about the plans for the Residential Women’s Centre (RWC) pilots announced in the Female Offender Strategy.
The latest on the Female Offender Strategy: prison expansion vs community solutions
Clinks is highly disappointed in the plans to expand the women’s prison estate with an additional 500 places to be built into existing prisons. The decision contradicts the intentions of the government’s female offender strategy.
