As prisons begin to open up again HMPPS has issued an update on the forms of ID that social and official visitors need to provide to enter a prison. As of the 6th April 2021 the ID required will change. Please make sure you are aware of the changes by visiting POPS prison-specific FB pages.
Because of coronavirus (COVID-19), there are restrictions around visiting someone in prison in England or Wales. Check which prisons are open for visits and what you need to do https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/prisons-in-england-and-wales.
