have just been released from prison. Mr Ellis explained how the Government is adopting an attitude of more offenders being involved in community work rather than being sent to prison. He also spoke of a scheme called 'community care\ which is hoped to be introduced soon, where prisoners have more dealings with the community while still in prison. Mrs S. Swinbourne was the monthly. points cup winner.
