Tips for emailing Prison Governors
Be Polite. If you are able to say something good about the prison before you express your disappointment or concern do it. It's a great way to get your reader on side.
Stick to the facts. Try not to let any emotion or judgment spill out.
Don't use threats. Shorter is better. Keep the information concise and to the point.
Include any reference to wings, landings, and locations of any incidents or names of people you have.
Include a brief history of the issue and any correspondence so far, if it's helpful.
If you have reported the issue before use names of people you have spoken to if you have them.
Do not accept being passed to pillow and post unless it's with a named person and with a promise of follow-up.
Explain clearly what you want as a solution or outcome. If you need any help, simply get in touch and we'll do our best.
