Cherie Blair KC became a barrister in 1976 and went on to be a county court and crown court judge. In 2024 she was appointed to the Leadership Board of the charity Women in Prison, where she has stressed the importance of supporting women and girls before they come into contact with the criminal justice system.
Kate Morrissey is on the Women’s Justice Partnership Delivery Group which supports the Women’s Justice Board. She’s Head of Health and Justice for the East of England region for NHS England, and at the weekends she serves on the frontline with an ambulance service. Kate was remanded to prison as a young adult where she began to address drug problems that she'd experienced since she was a teenager and embarked on volunteering work which eventually led her to the positions she holds today.
