Children’s prisons inflict unspeakable damage on inmates. Close them now
The 15th anniversary of Gareth Myett’s death in a children’s prison is being commemorated by a campaign to end child imprisonment in the UK.

Understanding the Use, and Misuse, of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) in Trauma-Informed Policing
An increased awareness about how trauma impacts upon children and adults is vital for the identification of vulnerability, development of trauma-informed policing and strengthening the case for the prevention. ACEs provide an easily understandable framework which could help to develop trauma-informed practice and responses.

In this article we review the current evidence with a focus on the strengths, current issues and risks in the use of ACEs across policing.
