Creative Strategist & Comedian Matt Box On Employing Ex-offenders

  • Summary

  • According to the prison reform trust, 57% of women in prison report having been victims of domestic violence. A quarter of the UK adult population also went through foster care - by all accounts, ex-offenders are a vulnerable group but only 17% are in jobs a year after release. So what can advertising do to make work post-release more accessible and employers more accountable to empower those who are reformed?


    In this week’s episode of The Good, The Bad & The Advertising, Amy and Dino are joined by special guest Matt Box. A newly sleep-deprived Dad, Matt is a hilarious creative strategist, at George P Johnson Experience Marketing, and a pretty serious comedian.


    Together they discuss how advertising can influence employers to give a second chance to those who have served their time and want to make a fresh start.


    How would you get more ex-offenders back into work?
