Abstract

60% of those convicted of offences re‐offend within two years at a cost to the taxpayer of c. £9.5 - £13 billion per year. In May 2018 the UK Government produced an Education and Employment Strategy for offenders that needed to ‘start with offenders themselves’. Based on a Friday Conversation presentation in Rawthmells coffeehouse in March 2019, James Crabbe FRSA asks ‘How can we enable prisoners to want a better life?’
