Self-harm across the youth secure estate is alarmingly high.
Recommendation
Self-harm across the youth secure estate is alarmingly high. There has been a welcome reduction in consecutive months since January, but self-harm is at the highest level in the last five years. The Ministry of Justice and Youth Custody Service should set out what measures they have put in place specifically to address self-harm.
