Dear XXX, I am writing to you as one of your constituents to raise the issue of violence and drugs in prisons, and the effect it has on my health and safety. The Justice Unions in Prisons Alliance (JUPA), of which my union is a part, have recently conducted a survey of all staff in prisons, and the report Safe Inside highlights some worrying statistics. As a prison educator, I am really concerned about the levels of violence highlighted in the report, with over a quarter (26 per cent) of staff working in prisons have been the victim of physical violence within the last year. The research also looked at the effect of exposure to psychoactive substances, including spice, on staff. Over half of staff (53 per cent) said they had been exposed, and over a third (39 per cent) reported becoming ill as a result. Symptoms included light-headedness, dizziness, confusion and tiredness, nausea and vomiting, increased heart rate and blood pressure and anxiety and paranoia. You can read the full report here  HYPERLINK "http://www.ucu.org.uk/jupa" www.ucu.org.uk/jupa This is the environment in which I, and many other prison staff, are working in every day, and it cant continue. EDM motion 2492, Safe Inside Report on Prison Staff Safety, has been lodged on this issue, and I would ask you to sign this to show your support for the campaign. JUPA are also holding a drop-in session on Wednesday 10th July from 2.30pm 4pm, which I hope you will find the time to attend, so you can hear first-hand about the experiences of a variety of staff working in prisons. I look forward to hearing from you.
