It was a privilege to meet Cecilia Mwenda and the team from HEAL Collective for the launch of their new display at the @JusticeMuseum, Ghosts of Yarl's Wood. The exhibition shows why we need an immigration system that doesn't punish people simply for seeking safety.

Today is #InternationalDayOfEducation with the theme 'AI and Education: Human Agency in an Automated World'. As the use of #AI becomes more common, we want to know what you think about using it in a court/justice setting. Does AI have a place in the British justice system?

Day 26: Handle In the women’s ward you will find a Victorian drying rack which folds away into the wall! While the alcove and metal are original, the wood has added by the museum. The heat from the boilers would rise through vents to dry the clothes! #Museum30
