Ever been to prison? What support did you get applying for benefits, finding work and returning to a normal life?

The House of Commons Work and Pensions Select Committee have launched an inquiry into the benefits and employment support available to people with convictions when they leave prison.

They are interested in hearing from anybody who has had experience of the prison system.

The deadline for consultation is 15th July 2016.
