Cornton Vale is a new prison specially designed for women in Scotland. The 226 prisoners there live in small units of seven rooms. There is a kitchen where they cook their own meals and a lounge with fitted carped and armchairs.
    The "wake-up, wake-up" called by loudspeaker at 7 every morning is followed by a music program, which creates the atmosphere of a holiday camp. During the day, most of the prisoners are employed in three workshops, making toys or clothing. Their earning—up to 90 pence a week—can be spent in the prison shop.
    The gymnasium, which also acts as a cinema and concert hall, has facilities for table tennis, basketball and dancing.
    Prisoners, particularly those with long sentences, are encouraged to be independent and take responsibility for themselves and others. This is in many ways much more demanding than simply serving time. Just as the deputy governor of this prison once said, "We try to preserve the prisoners’s self-respect as much as possible, by imagining ourselves in their position" ourselves in their position.’ His words explain why this new prison is mn in a unique way.
