Article by Bob Woffinden

Bob Woffinden has recently placed an article on my case in Inside Time...the prison newspaper. Obviously because the role of the CCRC is being questioned by many, including campaigners, criminal practitioners, academics and applicants it is hoped that because of the growing dissatisfaction we can lobby the Government into reviewing how the CCRC works.
