Ms Clodagh Carroll:

There is something about supporting Traveller mothers to understand their identity as mothers and understand that they have a right to know where their children are, and to have meaningful contact with them. We have learned to support the mothers to have that contact with their children, which at the moment in the Prison Service is very short. We hope to look at a more relationship-based, trauma-informed piece in that regard. It is about meaningful contact with their children even though they are not the primary carer of their child.
