• 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.
