Download UK Prisoner release; Nuns on the bus; Assisted dying
This week, a further 1,100 prisoners were released early to ease the prison overcrowding crisis. We explore how faith groups are supporting ex-prisoners trying to move on with their lives.
We join the ‘Nuns on the Bus’ - a group of Catholic sisters and interfaith partners who recently toured the US ahead of the election, encouraging people to be ‘multi-issue voters.’
With the first vote on the Assisted Dying Bill a matter of weeks away, we hear diverse views within faith communities, as people grapple with the complexities of the debate.
