THE IPP DIARIES
TWENTY YEARS UNDER IPP:
PAIN, FAITH AND THE ROAD TO REDEMPTION
The IPP Diaries is a personal series of essays and reflections drawn from Adam’s twenty-year journey under the Imprisonment for Public Protection sentence. It traces imprisonment and recall, addiction and trauma, pain and spiritual struggle, faith and recovery—and the continuing journey through desistance, education, achievement and redemption.
​
Moving between past, present and future, each entry will explore defining experiences, unexpected encounters and the people who shaped the road along the way. This is not a polished story of transformation completed, but an honest record of struggle, responsibility, grace, success and the continuing work of turning pain into purpose.
A new entry will accompany each monthly Exemplar Briefing.
