Episode 2: Children in police cells shines a light on the experiences of children aged 10 to 18 held in police custody. On average, children suspected of committing a crime are held in a windowless cell for 11 hours with nothing to do and often no one to talk to. Our hosts were joined by guests Mel Stooks, solicitor for the firm GT Stewart, and Dr Vicky Kemp, Principal Research Fellow at the University of Nottingham, discuss what this experience is like for children and provide practical suggestions for how it could be improved.
