Charities invited to submit project work for prisoners

Wed, 03 Dec 2014

A prisoner is being put to good use for the good of patients at Noble's Hospital.

The inmate is making slings from recycled material - replacing the disposable varieties provided to patients. 

30 slings have been created so far - generating significant savings for the Department of Health and Social Care.

The Department of Home Affairs is looking for more project work to introduce to prisoners - any interested charities and businesses are asked to call 891069.
