Our evidence on 'Changing prison cultures through education' submitted to the House of Lords' Justice and Home Affairs Committee has been cited in their report 'Better Prisons: Less Crime'. We are working hard to see that inclusive education is at the forefront of solutions to the prison crisis.

Philosophical Conversations in Prison - The Philosophers' Magazine Mike Coxhead and James Chamberlain on the transformative potential of philosophical conversations in prison.

What I’ve learned from teaching philosophy in prisons ‘With philosophy, people care about what I think. Nobody listens when you’ve been in prison. Everything you think is wrong, rubbish, you’re nothing.’

“Hated school, dropped out at 11, can’t read, can’t write. But I can do this.”

This is a great read about the charity @philosophyinprison.bsky.social‬ - and the impact philosophy courses can have on confidence, mental health and constructive dialogue in prison.
