Head Injury: A strand in the ‘Weave’ of multiple health - morbidity in people in prison

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The likelihood of a prisoner in the UK having a history of head injury is high with many having persisting disability. The characteristics of head injury are linked to challenging backgrounds and high social deprivation and are part of a complex ‘weave’ of multiple health morbidities. This article discusses potential ways forward in relation to education, support and intervention for prisoners and training of staff.
