Abstract
Partner imprisonment impacts women socially, emotionally, and physically. This paper explores six women’s experiences of partner imprisonment for violent crime in the UK using Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Four main themes were identified: The Prisoners Partner, Prison as Savior, Behind Bars on The Outside and Post Experience Growth. From these findings we suggest recommendations about how services and policy can support women experiencing partner imprisonment to violent crime in the UK.
