Improve the conditions of police holding cells!

We are calling upon the Government to reconsider the suitability of police holding cells. We want to get skylights and pastel coloured walls implemented in all police holding cells nationally.

Why is this important?

Our research has shown that 74% of people think that police holding cells require improvement and 83% of people think that police holding cells should become more adapted for neurodivergent and/or young people. People who have stayed in holding cells have described them as "oppressive" "made me feel insignificant" "very minimal". This is not acceptable conditions for people who may not have committed a crime to stay in.
