Life inside 2010

Life inside 2010.  A unique insight into the day to day experiences of 15-17 year old males in prison

This is the first policy report to be produced as part of the U R Boss project. It was developed in conjunction with young people currently in custody and released into the community. Through a series of workshops and one to one work, young people identified the topic of this report, the issues they wanted discussed and key lessons for policy makers and practitioners. 

An essential reading for policy makers, prison, probation and youth justice practitioners, sentencers and anyone concerned with child welfare.
