NHS England London's consultation on Women in the Criminal Justice System in London: A Health Strategy

Clinks submitted this response to a consultation by the London Health in the Justice System and Other Vulnerable Adults Strategic Clinical Network on their draft strategy for improving health outcomes for women in contact with the Criminal Justice System in London. The response welcomes the overall direction of the strategy, which acknowledges the need for greater collaboration across the whole system to enable continuity of care; the need for a gender sensitive response to vulnerable women; and a focus on building women's resilience, self-confidence and ability to manage their own health. Clinks also highlights the importance of including voluntary sector organisations as key partners in order to achieve the ambitions set out in the strategy.
