This webinar discusses the findings of our latest report, Built to Harm: how women's prisons take lives and why we must end the imprisonment of women to safeguard lives.
The report examines the circumstances of seven recent deaths in women’s prisons and situates them within decades of systemic failure. It exposes how the women’s prison estate continues to harm and fail those it imprisons, despite years of calls for change.
Through detailed case studies and statistical analysis of deaths and self-harm in women’s prisons between 2018 and 2024, Built to Harm reveals recurring and entrenched issues - from the failure to believe women in crisis, to dangerous shortcomings in prison processes, and the continued use of imprisonment as the default response to social inequality.
Speakers include:
Oceana, campaigner and daughter of Kay Melhuish who died following neglect at HMP Eastwood Park
Tanya Tracey, incoming Director of Services at Birth Companions and co-chair of the Agenda Alliance board, an intersectional feminist organisation
Jessica Pandian, Deborah Coles, and Mo Mansfield of INQUEST
