Govt recommendations on social housing could disadvantage people with criminal records. Under the proposals, someone with an unspent conviction and/or certain civil sanctions relating to anti-social behaviour could be disqualified from access to social housing. 🧵 [1/5]

A huge thank you to @_CPBrooks who gave a really interesting and informative talk to the @PrisonersEd staff team today on her research on access to higher education for people with criminal records. You can read more about her research here ⬇️.

@jonbcollins @PrisonersEd It was lovely to be able to share my research with the team, thank you for having me!

Excited to share some findings from my PhD research exploring university admissions policies for people with criminal records. Most universities continue to require applicants to disclose their conviction which can impact access to #highereducation.

📢Call to action! Shockingly, we know the exact number of Labradors registered in the UK, but not the number of children with a #parentinprison We are inviting you to watch #invisiblechildren for more info and to register your place eventbrite.co.uk/e/what-happens…

@Andibrierley @Wonkhe @LeedsTrinity @curiousruth Thank you Andi and Ruth, I really enjoyed reading this and especially the important points about language.

The chancellor talked about getting people into work, but the #AutumnStatement included no mention of the 12 million people living with the stigma of a criminal record. (1)

@Sam_McAleese Thank you!

@_CPBrooks Congrats! This is such important work and I'm excited to read your article!

@KirkbrideHannah Thank you Hannah for the interest in the topic! Happy to chat more. This piece is all about universities requiring disclosures for degrees that don’t require enhanced checks (which most universities still do unfortunately).

@_CPBrooks I'd be really interested to hear more about your research. This is an important area of research. I see some Universities request disclosure when they don't need to? Are requirements to disclose ONLY on career pathways into careers requiring enhanced disclosure?

Fantastic few days @DCU meeting lots of new people and presenting my PhD research for the North South Criminology Conference! #NSCC2023
