PPO Covid-19 June 22 Update

In addition to our new scanning solution for accessing prisoners mail, our assessment team and investigators are now trialling the use of ’email a prisoner’. Email a prisoner allows us to send messages to people in prison. The messages are sent safely and securely to the prison, who then print them off and deliver them to the recipient along with any other mail on a daily basis.

This will allow us to respond to complaints from people who complain to us where appropriate. We will carefully consider which written communications can be sent via email, mindful of the need for confidentiality. This will enable us to keep in touch and reply to letters at this challenging time.
