These prisoners say they’re turning their lives around after taking part in a game-changing culinary course behind bars.
The Mirror gained access to Cork Prison on Tuesday, where we spoke to prisoners who are taking part in a new eight-week ‘Practical Culinary Skills’ course that will significantly bolster their job prospects when they’re released.
And as part of the course, prisoners last night hosted a major dinner event — inviting guests from across the hospitality and restaurant industry into the prison for a four-course dinner in a ‘pop-up’ restaurant behind bars named The Open Door.
