The workshop will give young cons the chance to learn motor mechanics skills, working on cars donated by scrap yards and charities.

Justice Secretary Mr Raab said: “People come into prisons with all sorts of problems – drugs, alcohol, mental health issues, low self esteem, no education – and they are going to come out at some point.

“We want offenders to be given a second chance.

“It is good for them, it is good for all SE readers, and it is good for society at large, because that’s the way we will cut crime.”
