Fine Cell Network - A Fine Idea

If you are in London for Design Week then go over to The Dock in Notting Hill, Tom Dixon's place and see some works by Fine Cell Network. Also there will be, as part of Multiplex at The Dock for London Design Festival, a stitching workshop which is hosted by Fine Cell Work with Karl, an ex offender who spent time at HMP Bullingdon. They emailed me with the info and I was just blown away by the work that prisoners in jails all over the UK have created helped by many influential designers.

Swag Bags to take it all away, however you will have to pay for them. A fabulous and beautiful way to rehabilitate prisoners and stop them re-offending.
