Some prisoners at Glasgow' Barlinnie are taking part in a groundbreaking drama programme.
Scotland’s drugs minister Christina McKelvie visited the East End jail to see a performance this week.It allows men who might struggle to express themselves to do so in a safe environment, which is less emotionally triggering.
The programme consists of 12 to 16-week modules, including the development of a group script, culminating in a rehearsed reading for friends, family, support staff and external partners. “Our work supports people in prison to learn new skills, develop their confidence and sense of teamwork, and prepare for life outside in a way that makes it less likely they will re-offend.
“We are always looking for new ways to address social issues through the power of the arts and creativity, and we would welcome new partnerships to help us in this goal.”Michael Stoney, Governor in Charge at HMP Barlinnie, said: “We are grateful to Creative Change Collective for the work they are doing here in Barlinnie.
