Howard League for Penal Reform

The Howard League for Penal Reform is dedicated to creating a more humane and effective response to crime in England and Wales, focusing on justice for all and the reduction of reoffending. Their mission involves advocating for sensible changes that enhance community safety and striving to decrease the prison population by addressing issues of overcrowding and unsafe conditions within jails.

The organisation also provides legal advice for children and young people in custody, positioning itself as a critical resource in the criminal justice system. Through various initiatives, including briefings for policymakers and events aimed at raising awareness of prison conditions, the Howard League works to promote a more just and rehabilitative approach to crime and punishment.
