"Hi, sorry it's late but just wanted to say thanks for doing such a great job with the prison visit, the kids really enjoyed it and I did too lol. Keep up the good work and we also made a £100 donation which was sent to the Prison Me No Way programme at the Deep Business Centre. Thanks again" -- Lauren.

"Thank you so much for visiting my child’s school today (Trent Valley Academy Gainsborough). The day has had a huge impact on my child. I haven’t heard her speak so eloquently for such a long time. The prison wardens were both feared and respected and they dispelled a lot of myths. I wish it could have been over 2 days as she missed some of the workshops, as the school numbers were so big. She was on face book discussing it with her friends all evening.

This area has lots of petty crime and alcohol and drug problems, with children as young as 12 getting drunk, smoking weed, being involved in anti social crime and I think this showed the children how fruitless it all is and how it can lead to more serious crimes. That a marvellous initiative. Perhaps you need to start visiting younger children, year 6 and 7? I work with Y6 children and their families, maybe this sort of thing could be adapted for younger children? Good luck for the future." -- Mrs Y.
