Faced with an increase in incidence of self-harm and suicides amongst young men in his care, the Governor of HMP YOI Feltham was approached by two local residents, Roma Hooper and Mark Robinson, with the idea of setting up a radio station to keep prisoners company at night when they were at their most vulnerable.


The Prison Radio Association (PRA) is established as a charity in response to a growing demand from prisons to engage with prison radio. Its function was to offer guidance and expertise to prisons interested in setting up and running their own radio projects.
