Difficulties with Secure Environments
“Although some units accepted young women with these emerging difficulties, others felt less able to support them particularly if they already had one or two other young women on the unit with similar presentations. Some interviewees felt that many young women slipped between the cracks of services failing to access the support they needed at an early enough stage”

Is the CJS Gender Sensitive?
Interventions and Treatments are more often than not developed with men in mind for men as there are much higher numbers of men in the CJS.
Corston Report highlighted the gender inequality in the prison service.
Specialist services for girls and women are relatively non-existent in both the community and secure establishments.

Miss ADefence counsel Iain Ross said Bishop had "spiralled
out of control" around the age of 16 after her parents broke up and her mother began a relationship with a man who was abusive and addicted to heroin
Defence counsel Paul Hester said on the night of the offence, Hadfield had left her own birthday celebration because of an argument involving her partner. "She went in, in that emotional state, having had drink and things got out of hand," he said.

Miss BA psychiatric report carried out after the discovery of
the document said there was nothing to suggest she was capable of such violence.
"The psychiatric report did not predict any likely occurrence of this," said a spokesman for Barnet Youth Offending Team.
"Once her supervision was completed, there was no mechanism for stopping her re-offending."
Henry Blaxland QC, defending, said: "The court has before it somebody who is, on the face of it, emotionally damaged.

Opened its doors on 1st September 200612 beds on F wing, HMP YOI Low NewtonFor women who have a current offence against the
person, including arson and sexual offences.Assessed as presenting as high risk of reoffendingLikely to have a severe form of personality disorderA clinically justifiable link between the above

Why did Primrose come about? A gender specific strategy was needed to focus on
women who present a high or very high risk of serious harm to others.
Almost all offending behaviour programmes for violent and sexual offending are delivered for men.
The prevalence of PD in women in prison is about 60-70%
To increase the workforce knowledge and ability to cope with such a challenging group of women.
