    Women’s Health in the Justice System: Exploring…maternal health

    In this episode we look back to 2023’s Motherhood in the Justice System Series when we explored the issues and challenges mothers in the justice system face, and what needs to change. Maternal health was a key feature in the series including a focus on experiences of pregnancy, birth and the post-natal period.   In this episode we bring together the voices of two guests in this series. Dr Laura Abbott is a registered midwife and Associate Professor in Research at The University of Hertfordshire, who has extensively researched women’s experiences of pregnancy in criminal justice settings. We also hear from Dr Miranda Davies who leads prisoner health research at the Nuffield Trust - this body of work is the first time routine hospital data at a national level has been used to describe how often prisoners use hospital services and for what reasons.   Please note this episode contains discussion of traumatic births and infant mortality that some listeners may find upsetting.    Explore Dr Laura Abbott’s research: https://researchprofiles.herts.ac.uk/en/persons/laura-abbott/projects/ , and the Lost Mothers Project https://lostmothers.org/ Find Dr Laura Abbott on X (formerly Twitter) or Bluesky @midwifeteacher Read the Nuffield Trust’s report ‘Inequality on the inside: Using hospital data to understand the key health care issues for women in prison’ Twitter - @OSTCharity This podcast is created and produced by The London Podcast Company Hosted on Acast.

    Women’s Health in the Justice System: Exploring…the impact of brain injury

    In this episode Lilly Lewis, Women’s Involvement Advisor at One Small Thing speaks to Stephanie Bechelet and Thea Arch from Brainkind.   Last month Brainkind released a report which found that 80% of women in the criminal justice system in Wales may be living with a brain injury. Alongside this they found the women in the study had complex health needs, frequently reporting histories of domestic abuse, substance misuse, and mental and physical health issues.   Lilly speaks to Stephanie and Thea about this important research, as well as their wider work on brain injury for women who have experienced domestic abuse.   Please note this episode contains description of abuse and violence and its impact on women’s lives.   To read the full report visit: https://brainkind.org/complex-lives/   Find out more about the work of Brainkind: https://brainkind.org/ Twitter - @OSTCharity This podcast is created and produced by The London Podcast Company Hosted on Acast.

  3. Women’s Health in the Justice System: Exploring…Menopause

    4 DE DEZ.

    Women’s Health in the Justice System: Exploring…Menopause

    Despite the fact that 51% of the population will experience menopause, and the estimated 13 million people who are currently peri or menopausal in the UK, the topic of menopause has remained taboo. In 2022 I was delighted to speak to two advocates driving change in the national conversation around menopause on their experience of this transition, and what needs to change to ensure more women have access to the support they need – including those in the justice system.   I spoke with Davina McCall, renowned TV presenter and household name who has presented documentaries about the menopause and is author of Menopausing, The Positive Roadmap to Your Second Spring which seeks to debunk myths, and break the shameful silence over the menopause. I was also joined by Carolyn Harris, MP for Swansea East who established the all-party parliamentary group (APPG) on menopause and has played a pivotal role in putting menopause on the national agenda.   More information: Read the APPG on Menopause Inquiry to assess the impacts of menopause and the case for policy reform: https://menopause-appg.co.uk/inquiry/ Read Menopausing, The Positive Roadmap to Your Second Spring, by Davina McCall and Dr. Naomi Potter: https://www.waterstones.com/book/menopausing/davina-mccall/dr-naomi-potter/9780008517786 Twitter - @OSTCharity This podcast is created and produced by The London Podcast Company Hosted on Acast.

    8 DE AGO.

    What can we learn from diversion schemes for women?

    In this episode we explore diversion schemes for women, and what role they play in preventing women from being unnecessarily drawn further into the criminal justice system. Edwina speaks to Pamela Price South London Women's Hubs Manager, and Miranda Dobson Head of Communications from Women in Prison (WIP) to learn more about the diversion scheme they run in South London, linked to their women’s centres. The programme aims to provide early intervention and support for women who have been taken into police custody, addressing underlying issues such as housing, poverty, and substance use.   This episode highlights the challenges faced by women in the criminal justice system, including the stigma and shame associated with criminalisation, particularly for mothers, and explores the positive outcomes diversion schemes can have – such as improvements in mental health, relationships, and well-being.    Learn more about the work of Women in Prison here: www.womeninprison.org.uk Follow them on X @WIP_live, on Instagram @womeninprisonuk, and on LinkedIn @Women in Prison.
