Jess Smith

I lead the delivery of Birth Companions’ Criminal Justice Services within prison and probation, overseeing a dedicated team of coordinators.

I previously worked with Birth Companions for several years as Coordinator of our HMP Foston Hall service, before embarking on a master’s degree with the Child and Woman Abuse Studies Unit at London Metropolitan University.

Outside of my work with Birth Companions, I have been involved in the Rape Crisis Movement for the past 8 years.
