Here’s something you don’t see every day: people who’ve used drugs now helping train the police.
In partnership with @Matt_J_Bacon @syptweet @sheffielduni we're co-creating a new kind of drugs policing training shaped and delivered by lived experience.

Founder Mark Johnson on @LBC discussing the #prison crisis
After months of planning today was our first Australian prison visit... bringing all we know about lived experience to the justice system, building from the ground up, from people in prison and on community orders, the real 'lived experts' #coproduction #livedexperience
Very excited that our groundbreaking (and as far as we know the largest internationally) peer research project on prisoners experience of covid with @gillmcn01 @criminology was published in the @PSJ_UK special edition... 11 prisons, 100 prisoner peer researchers & 1,400 prisoners
Our latest edition of the PSJ is now available online; it is focussed on the topic of Knowledge Equity in Carceral Research, and guest edited by @criminology , @paula_harriott and @DrHelenNichols

From our Founder @markwasted
So sad to hear about the death of Russell Newcombe @TheNewImpostor. I haven't met many people so values driven & authentic as him. It was a pleasure to work with him and I have immense respect for him and what he achieved.

Hard to reach groups or hard to reach services? Compelling presentation from Mark who has led and been at the vanguard of the campaign around lived experience in the health and justice system.

Mark Johnson shares opportunity of #coproduction in prisons. Lived experience should be embedded in commissioning, planning, delivering& evaluating services. Lived experience in coproduction challenges power hierarchies it is colourful, messy & energising. @livedexpert @wephren
