"Prisoners are using touch-screen information kiosks as part of a government scheme to reduce rates of reoffending and depression.
'Quality advice on the inside means that [prisoners] can better prepare for life on the outside. Prisoners and their families can take early action to avoid problems escalating and reduce the risk of reoffending.' Information will be available in eight languages, including Arabic, Russian and Welsh. PIPs are being piloted in Leicester, Lincoln and Nottingham. BT installed the kiosks and has also implemented a phone system based on inmates using PINs instead of phone cards in 138 prisons." [Snippet]
