Which two organisations partnered for the 'Care not Custody' campaign?

• A. The Prison Reform Trust and the Women's Institute.
• B. The Howard League for Penal Reform and Amnesty International
• C. The Prison Reform Trust and the British Medical Association
• D. The Howard League and the Royal Society

Answer: (A)

This item tests knowledge of the specific partnership behind the Care not Custody campaign. The best answer is that the Prison Reform Trust joined forces with the Women’s Institute. The Prison Reform Trust brings expertise in challenging unjust detention and advocating for policy changes in the criminal justice system, while the Women’s Institute provides broad reach, a strong focus on women’s welfare, and a large grassroots network. Their collaboration makes sense for a campaign aimed at reducing custody for vulnerable people, particularly women, and pushing for care-based alternatives. The other pairings don’t fit the campaign’s typical coalition: they mix organizations with different primary focuses or audiences (global human rights advocacy, medical associations, or science societies) rather than a criminal-justice reform group working with a nationwide women’s organization.
