In memory of my brother Liridon Saliuka - Campaigning to stop preventable deaths & disability discrimination in UK prisons
Grief whispers, “You’ve already lost.”
Anxiety replies, “You could lose again.”
And somewhere between them, I’m just trying to rest.

A flawed investigation into a prison death doesn’t just bury the truth — it buries any chance for change. Justice can't begin where accountability ends.💔

Prisons are overcrowded, underfunded, and failing, yet more people are being sent there for things that would be better addressed with support, not punishment. We don’t have a justice system. We have a system of control.

Anxiety isn’t always panic attacks. Sometimes it’s silence, avoidance, overthinking, or pretending you're okay when you’re exhausted inside.

Latest statistics show a 30% increase of deaths in prison & the highest rate of self-harm since records began.
Despite this, no meaningful action is being taken to address the root cause of why deaths & self-harm are increasing in prison: an over-reliance on punishment to deal with social issues.
