Supporting People in North West Prisons

Think Pieces

By Basma Aboudihaj and George Thornton · August 1, 2024

For over a year, Intuitive Thinking Skills has been proudly working in partnership with Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Trust (GMMH) to deliver our accredited programmes across four prisons in the North West. We have been delivering our programmes in prisons for over nine years. Our initiatives, including Intuitive Recovery, Skills-Tu Life, and Kind Regards, have made a meaningful impact on the lives of those we have worked with.

Currently, our dedicated team consists of two staff members actively delivering these courses, and we’re excited to welcome a new member to our team. As part of our ongoing commitment to innovation and support, we are launching the Ambassador Programme. This initiative will engage individuals serving life sentences to explore the opportunities they believe would have been beneficial at the start of their sentence. Additionally, we’ll be raising awareness on important topics such as menopause, with plans to include more in the future.
