WHAT PEOPLE SAY
“What was most poignant was listening to the voices and stories of individual prisoners that I know very well and sensing a genuine mutual trust and respect to you both in their voices”
“Bird have succeeded in capturing insight about prisoners formative years in care. Thanks to the humble honesty and bravery that these young men showed, Bird have put together an emotive piece that on hearing puts our own problems in to perspective. I would recommend any establishment to work with them”
