 A really interesting talk today by Lyn Rochester entitled “ I came out of prison today”.

Lyn explained how she worked as a volunteer at a woman’s prison in Lincolnshire enabling the women to earn an income. She taught them the basics of embroidery so they would have a skill when they left prison. She also distributed packs so they could make items to sell through Fine Cell Work, the charity that organised the scheme.

You can see in the photo two of the cushions and a pincushion worked by prisoners.
