A pilot project - the first of its kind - has been running in London for around 18 months. It seeks to create mechanisms and opportunities for families to be heard and influence how healthcare services are delivered and developed.

• Understanding of the importance of professional boundaries and the complex/vulnerable nature of our service users.
• Knowledge and understanding of the diverse needs of prisoners and their families, including those from marginalised communities.
• Experience of service user involvement with diverse groups, ideally including people who have been affected by the criminal justice system.
We would welcome applications from people who have lived experience – that could be as a family member of someone in prison; or as someone who has been in prison.

We provide practical and emotional support to prisoner’s children and families, to prisoners and those who have resettled back into the community.
