To all of the #HiddenHeroes in UK prisons, probation, youth justice and immigration detention - especially those of you who are working today - a very Merry Christmas, from all of us at the Butler Trust.
Happy #HiddenHeroes Day to everyone working in UK prisons, probation, youth justice and immigration detention - and thank you for all you do.
Today is #HiddenHeroes Day and we’d just like to send our own heartfelt message of thanks to everyone working in UK prisons, immigration detention, probation and youth justice settings – you may be hidden, but you’re not forgotten.
Action, not just words. Britain stands with Ukraine, today and always 🇬🇧🇺🇦
I was thinkng recently about attachment styles in the workplace, so I thought I'd post a THREAD about recent research publications on this topic. Many leaders won't realise they are dealing, in the office, with fears they held as an infant. So are their employees & staff members.
Breakfast at The Ivy this morning 🤩
A credible #SentencingReview must draw on perspectives of prison and probation staff who implement courts’ decisions, NGOs, and above all people who have served prison and/or community sentences. Any review will otherwise be lop-sided and lack all legitimacy.
Service, food, atmosphere, impeccable as always @BlacklockChops
#NapoAGM24 on way home after one of the most exhilarating conferences I have been to at #napotheunion . Absolute privilege to share precious time with our members in person and online. Solidarity and huge appreciation to you all. We welcome the prospect of even more new members.
In the context of high workloads and staffing issues, Phil echoes the Chief Inspectors comments that probation staff have been heroic. #NapoAGM24
#HiddenHeroes Day 2024 is 25 September – a day to remember the men and women working in UK prisons, IRCs, probation and youth justice; thank them for their service; and remind them they’re not forgotten even if they are largely hidden from public view. HiddenHeroes.uk
Results received this week from case audit “Well managed case with a proactive, thoughtful and highly engaged practitioner working to build a constructive relationship and motivate the person”. Fantastic result I would say, given the current workload situation.
