Women in Prison |
| Women in Prison (WIP) was established in 1983 as a support and campaign group for women prisoners. WIP was led by its founder/Director Chris Tchaikovsky, herself a former prisoner, until her early death in 2002.
Throughout its life, WIP has worked to support women offenders in prison and on their release. We are committed to effecting change within the women’s prison system. We endeavour to listen to the unique experiences of women prisoners and make these experiences known. In doing so we hope a greater understanding of women and imprisonment will develop.
Today WIP provides a range of resettlement and education services that meet the specific needs of women in prison and after release across England |
