Faith reflects on her journey to the IMB, the expectations versus reality of the role, and the impact of her whistleblowing article that led to her suspension. Despite the challenges, she remains passionate about prison reform and continues to advocate for change. takeaways The IMB is a statutory body that monitors prisons. Members of the IMB have 24/7 access to prisons but face challenges in independence. Faith's background in the voluntary sector influenced her path to the IMB. Expectations of the IMB role can differ significantly from reality. The IMB is funded by the Ministry of Justice, affecting its perceived independence. Building trust with prisoners is a significant challenge for IMB members. The emotional toll of working in prisons can be substantial. Support and camaraderie among IMB members can be lacking. Faith's whistleblowing article raised important issues but led to her suspension. Faith continues to advocate for prison reform through her blog and public speaking. Faith Spear FRSA is a prison reform advocate best known for her integrity and as staunch critic of this country’s prison system. Until January 2017, Faith served as Chair of the Independent Monitoring Board (IMB) at HMP/YOI Hollesley Bay.

Known for challenging the status quo and addressing systemic failures within the prison system. Her work has earned her respect among her peers and recognition as a leading voice in the ongoing efforts to reform the UK’s prisons. Topics of Faith’s blogs have proven consistently correct, evidenced by the crisis in our prisons, unprecedented overcrowding, critical understaffing, places of violence and devoid of any meaningful rehabilitative outcomes.
