8 weeks of Snacking on Shakespeare workshops at HMP Bonzefield begin on May 9th

The last workshops of 2025 with Mary Chater will culminate in a showing of scenes for Achievement Day on June 27th

Women in the prison who have taken part in Education courses from the spring to the summer are awarded certificates to attest to their participation and achievement. Sustaining any kind of course in such an environment is a huge achievement in itself. It shows determination and great strength of character.

We have fun however incongruous that may sound - it's a breath of fresh air which is in short supply. The ladies ask questions as we go and a multiplicity of themes are discussed as we encounter them. We put scenes on their feet in the library and this is what we intend to do for Achievement day.

The John Armitage Charitable Trust funds the work for which we are grateful.
