Our regular monthly broadcasts
At the Centre for Crime and Justice Studies we currently broadcast two monthly Zoom programmes, exploring different aspects of the criminal justice system.
For our flagship Last month in criminal justice programme, on the first Wednesday of each month, an expert panel discusses key developments in criminal justice over the previous month.
On our next programme on 2 February, Richard will be joined by Kate Coleman of Keep Prisons Single Sex, Rona Epstein of Coventry University, and the former Chief Constable Peter Neyroud, now at the University of Cambridge. Topics up for discussion include the latest developments in the Sarah Everard inquiry, the report into a still-birth at Styal women’s prison, recent parliamentary debates on the question of transgender prisoners, and the policing of partygate.
Last month in criminal justice is a great way of keeping up-to-date with what’s been going on in criminal justice.
Our other monthly programme – Lunch with… – is an informal conversation with interesting and inspiring guests in the criminal justice field. On January 18 we will be having Lunch with Whitney Iles, Founder and Chief Executive of Project 507, which works to counter the cycles of trauma and violence all-too-present in today’s society.
Among other things, Whitney will be talking about her two-decades-worth of experience as a frontline practitioner working with young people and communities affected by violence, and what motivated her to set up Project 507.
In February we will be having Lunch with two campaigners working to end the dreadful Imprisonment for Public Protection sentence: Donna Mooney and Shirley Debono.
