Hope - the exit ramp from crime: Callum Hutchinson
Callum Hutchinson has navigated the criminal justice system since he was 16 years old. All his crimes were closely connected to alcohol abuse, but not once was it suggested to him that he should address his use of drink. In his essay, Callum describes in extraordinary detail what happened when he was stabbed nine times during a violent assault. He goes on to explain how he was offered an exit ramp from crime. Callum's essay comes from the book Humane Justice, published by the charity Khulisa as part of the Monument Fellowship.

Seeing the Person: Tanjit Dosanjh OBE
Tanjit Dosanjh is an optometrist. When his father went to prison, he decided he wanted to help people in prison by using his professional skills. He learned of optical labs in California's prisons, and raised enough money to launch an optical training lab inside HMP Standford Hill in 2012. Since then, he's trained 60 prisoners, 45 of whom have secured jobs with opticians. He also secured optometry contracts with 60 prisons. Spectacles are made by prisoners, which makes the organisation financially self-sustaining. Tanjit's essay comes from the book Humane Justice, published by the charity Khulisa as part of the Monument Fellowship.
