"Plans are underway to launch an innovative study to help engage prisoners at Whitemoor Prison in East Anglia with collections at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. Dr Sally-Ann Ashton, Senior Assistant Keeper in the Department of Antiquities at the Fitzwilliam, was so inspired by the prisoners’ reaction to lectures she gave there she is now seeking funds for a scheme to provide them with digital information".
