Did you know LandWorks reoffending rate is just 6%?
It’s little wonder the former Chief Inspector of Prisons said it provides one of the best examples in the country of how we can reduce reoffending and turn lives around.
With 39% of prisoners reoffending within the first year after release, leading people away from a life of crime is vital to bring our prison population down.
The Government has already announced £2.3bn towards prison builds over the next two years. Given LandWorks incredible results, I asked the Minister if the Government was also considering investing in similar projects across the country.
