Supporting information
Pattern + Push have been working with the National Literacy Trust delivering highly effective workshops in a number of prisons including HMP Leeds, Humber, Askham Grange, Elmley and Swaleside. Following the success of this activity, we have been awarded funding by Youth Music to help develop our work in Criminal Justice. Membership as a Clinks partner/sub-contractor would be a great help in reaching a wider audience to help us with our work.
