Jack Merritt played a small but important role in one of our early podcasts, The Brief, explaining the law to people in prison. He was generous with his time and all too happy to help others. His life should inspire us all. The criminal justice community is in deep shock. RIP.

Last night's #clapforNHS was observed in prisons too. Here's a message we've just received from one of our National Prison Radio listeners: "I'd like to thank the NHS for everything they've done. It was really moving last night, everyone was banging on the doors and the windows."
