People across the South are being encouraged to volunteer with the Independent Monitoring Board to go into prisons as part of a new recruitment drive.
IMB members go into jails to monitor conditions and treatment.
They act as the eyes and ears of the public, reporting concerns directly to ministers.
After an induction period you will make around 2-3 visits a month and observe everything that goes on. You will see how staff relate to prisoners and those in detention, and what processes there are for supporting and rehabilitating individuals. You will have full access to the prison, from the wings to the segregation unit and the education centre.
Applications close on the 18th of February.
