The charity, Music In Detention, which uses music to give immigration detainees a voice, has organised a community exchange between detainees from the Haslar Immigration Removal Centre (IRC) and young people in Gosport. The project was designed to create channels of communication between the detainees, immigration detention staff, local communities and the wider public. A group from the IRC, which holds adult men who have been detained by the UK Border Agency under the Immigration Act, took part in workshop sessions led by ‘Drum Runners’, and the work created by detainees then inspired young people from Rowner’s Nimrod Community Centre to create their own music. The exchange culminated in a performance (pictured) by the young people, with a backdrop made by both detainees and the young people themselves.
