Inspired by Suzy, a senior manager for the prison service, who is running 52 miles to raise money for the The Prison Phoenix Trust, I am in training to raise money to produce DVDs to help people in prison practise yoga and meditation in their cells.
The impact of Covid-19 in prisons has been huge - with lots of work, education and group activities like yoga cancelled to keep people safe. But the impact on mental health of this 23+ lock-up in cells is huge. Yoga and meditation are powerful tools prisoners can use to help deal with these challenges - and find the mental space to address some of the issues that have led to their offending.
The money we raise will go towards the funding this powerful work. Thank you for your support.
