About this episode

This episode features the Governor of HMP Brixton discussing her experiences and insights from her role in front of a live audience of inmates.

Today’s episode is a bit different – because we’re inside HMP Brixton, recording in front of a live audience of the men who live here. And we’re joined by the Governor of Brixton herself. Usually, we hear stories from people with lived experience, but today we’re exploring things from the other side: why she wanted this role, what it was like stepping into Brixton, and what day-to-day life looks like as a governor.  This podcast is also available as a video – just search Life After Prison on YouTube.  Contact us:    If anything you’ve heard in this podcast has inspired you to make a positive change in your life, or you’d just like to get in touch, please contact us.   💬 Socials: @afterprisonpod on Instagram and X, @lifeafterprison on TikTok   📧 Email: podcasts@prison.radio    ✉️ Write: Life After Prison, National Prison Radio, HMP Brixton, London SW2 5XF   🖥️ Website: https://lifeafterprisonpod.com/   Hosted on Acast.
