What the notice says

Award of a call off contract under the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System for Spoken Word course provision for prisoners at HMP Bure. The supplier will deliver interactive, practical spoken word workshops that with explore both writing and performance, bringing the two skills together. Each course will be led by an experienced spoken word artist. The courses will create opportunities for participants to explore their own lives and those of others by articulating ideas and empathising with different viewpoints and will culminate in a final showcase to peers and staff as sharing work before live audiences is often transformative and can have a positive impact on prisoners' self-esteem as well as on audience perceptions. This can often open prisoners' minds to different possibilities and pathways beyond prison, contributing to a strengthened resolve not to reoffend.
