Today I received my @ButlerTrust commendation presented by HRH Princess Anne. Presentation at the Sheldonian Theatre followed by afternoon tea at the Keble College. An amazing day had by all.
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.
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.
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.
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.
#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.
#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.

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.
A morning service took place today to mark Ukrainian Independence Day and salute the fearless resolve of the Ukrainian people who continue to fight for their freedom with the UK stood beside them.
