With reoffending rates costing society over £18 billion a year in the UK, helping prison leavers to re-enter our communities is urgently needed. With good people around them, a safe place to live, and a purpose in life, people with criminal convictions can significantly contribute to our society.  In this first episode of Catch22Minutes of Justice we explore how and why re-integration reduces the chances of reoffending. Why is successful reintegration into the community so important for prison leavers and society?  What are the societal challenges? And what support do we know is already working? Hosted by Catch22's Communications and Marketing Manager, Josie Cochrane, we are joined by Jacob from Offploy – a recruitment network supporting those with criminal convictions into meaningful work – and Noel, from Penal Reform Solutions.  Join in the conversation at #catch22minutes and visit our website at catch-22.org.uk
