<p>Today on Life After Prison,&nbsp;we’re&nbsp;joined by filmmaker Daisy-May Hudson.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>In 2013, Daisy-May was living in a hostel with her mum and sister — a reality she&nbsp;didn’t&nbsp;fully recognise as homelessness at the time.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>At that&nbsp;young age&nbsp;she decided to pick up a camera and document it, a decision that would change everything. Her story went viral, leading to her documentary Halfway, which she crowdfunded and took to cinemas.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Now a BAFTA Breakthrough talent, her work — including feature film Lollipop — focuses on storytelling, healing, and lived experience, particularly around prison and homelessness.&nbsp;</p><br><p>This podcast is also available as a video – just search <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@lifeafterprison" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Life After Prison</a> on YouTube.</p><br><p>Organisations:&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Clean Break - Support women affected by the criminal justice system through training and performance, helping them build confidence and pathways into creative industries.&nbsp;</li><li>Reclaim The Frame&nbsp;- Directly support women into film through development&nbsp;programmes, training, and&nbsp;showcasing&nbsp;work by women directors.&nbsp;</li><li>Daddyless&nbsp;Daughters - support girls and young women who have been affected by family breakdown,&nbsp;abuse&nbsp;and adversity across London between the age of 14 - 30 years old.
