ofabuses within the prison|| ||||||system and the impact of covid-19 on|| ||||||prisoners'
quality of life.|| ||||||Intervene
has taken on a large number of|| ||||||new volunteers.
The Charity is never short|| ||||||ofapplications
from talented
law students|| ||||||who wish to offer their legal knowledge
to|| ||||||our clients. Our volunteers
typically
remain|| ||||||with us for an average offour months,
and|| ||||||usually
only leave once they have secured|| ||||||a full-time
legal position elsewhere.
Each of|| ||||||our volunteers
contributes
one full day per|| ||||||week. The COVID-19 pandemic
has|| ||||||continued
to cause an element of|| ||||||disruption,
however,
the return to in-office|| ||||||working
has greatly aided our ability to|| ||||||maintain
our caseload and correspond|| ||||||regularly
with our clients.|| ||||||We have had success

giving|| |rise to abuses or neglect
will not be|| |repeated.|| |The charity has focussed most its efforts|on| |the pre-action stages of claims. Thus, we|| |have submitted
numerous
LBAs, and|| |regularly
send detailed correspondence|to| |Governors
outlining
the various injustices|| |faced by our clients. We have taken many|| |cases to the PPO for investigation.
Further,|| |when we deem the merits ofa case justify|| |litigation,
we issue cases in the county|| |courts. We have instructed
medical experts|| |and barristers
to provide assistance
in|| |some cases.|| |Intervene
has been able to employ a full-|| |time Manager to manage the charity,
its|| |casework and its volunteers.
This has|| |enabled
an increase
in the volume of|| |clients the Charity
is able to take on. It has|| |also allowed
Intervene
to focus some of|its| |energies
on research that will benefit our|| |clients. and improvements
to the legal aid|| |sectors we work within. The Manager
is|| |responsible
for assessing
all|| |correspondence
and casework produced|| |by the volunteers
before it is sent out.|| |Intervene
also continues
to allow|| |volunteers
to apply their knowledge
to live|| |cases and to gain experience ofactive|| |case mana
