In this episode, Edwina talks to Richard Garside, Director of the Centre for Crime and Justice Studies about their recent report on how prison systems in different European countries are dealing with the coronavirus outbreak.

Richard outlines the importance of this research both in the short and long term as it records how this crisis was handled and can be used to ensure we are better prepared for the future.

Following the release of this report, the Centre for Crime and Justice studies has released a series of webinars to have a more detailed understanding of the key issues and intends to carry out further qualitative research on COVID-19 in prisons.
