What is it like to be a woman in prison? What barriers do criminalised women face to create employment opportunities afterwards? What are the benefits of employing people with lived experience of custody if we want to improve the criminal justice system? What would criminal justice policy look like if we employed those with lived experience? What prejudice do people with lived experience face and is the criminal justice system guilty of exploiting their expertise? How can faith in someone help turn their life around? Do we harness placing value on the human being in our efforts to rehabilitate?
