I am very proud to share our recently published article on the use of sport to promote healthy prison cultures in the International Journal of Prison Health, co-written with @DrRosieMeek and Dr Emily Glorney. Thank you to all the guys engaged in @cellworkout for their insights.
2/2 Fantastic insight on the role of the coach as a safe face for ethnic minority YP, and how YP can use sport for identity development that is so vital for psychological well-being, especially needed for those from minority backgrounds.
It was standing room only in our @includesummit session yesterday! Thanks @JamieHooper for having us back to share our @LtPFUK findings through the youth voice of Reahana and Davarel from @Fight4Change123. And of course to @JustOneJustin for introducing the session... 1/2

Exciting times as we continue to share our @LES_UniBham findings on how @LtPFUK partners are levelling the playing field for ethnic minority CYP by promoting self-determined and pro-social behaviours that are vital for desistance from crime. Next stop @UKSDN @NottmTrentUni
