Setting up a Prisoners Support Fund

Over the years many prisoners have tried to obtain legal redress through courts without success, because of the shortcomings of solicitors whom we've been led to believe represent prisoners rights.

We are hoping to establish a fund with donations from prisoners, families and other outside organisations, to set up a board of trustees who will oversee the fund to set up our own firm of solicitors solely to represent us in all avenues of prison law, which we're entitled to challenge.

I am attempting to seek legal counsel on establishing this firm and what undertakings we would be needed from the legal aid board. We are also looking for nominees to form a board, who have no criminal records or affiliations to prisoners. We are also looking for ideas from the whole prison community in getting this off the ground. Once further information is to hand it will be published by groups who are fully aware of our aims.

Let's start fighting back for our rights that the system is slowly eroding.
