In its 2023-24 annual report, published on 04 April 2025, the Independent Monitoring Board (IMB) for HMP/YOI Foston Hall has found that the high turnover of short stay prisoners has resulted in more drugs and illicit items entering the prison. The turnover has also severely limited the prison’s ability to rehabilitate and reduce reoffending, as short sentences make it impossible for prisoners to take full advantage of opportunities such as education, work, progression or release planning.
