Company activities and impact

Spoken Injustice is a mission-driven, advocacy-focused media organisation committed to exposing the shortcomings of the criminal justice system, with a particular focus on wrongful convictions. Throughout the year, we continued to make significant progress in advancing our mission to raise awareness of miscarriages of justice, challenge systemic shortcomings within the criminal justice system and advocate for meaningful legal and procedural reform. Our efforts focused on strengthening our public presence, expanding our reach, engaging with individuals and organisations working towards similar objectives and contributing constructively to national discussions on justice reform. Through digital engagement, public speaking, reporting on significant legal developments and participation in formal consultations, we continued to establish our voice in this important area. Expanding Our Digital Presence and Public Engagement We achieved substantial growth across our digital platforms, enabling us to reach wider audiences, share important developments and promote greater public understanding of miscarriages of justice. 1. YouTube: Our YouTube community grew by more than 85% compared with the previous year, bringing us close to the milestone of 1,000 subscribers. By 31 January 2026, our videos had attracted a total of 107,900 views, with one of our most successful videos achieving 7,419 views. This growth demonstrates increasing public interest in our work and the importance of making complex legal issues accessible through informative and engaging content. Our channel continues to provide a valuable platform for raising awareness, explaining legal developments and highlighting concerns about the criminal justice system. 2. X (formerly Twitter): We also significantly strengthened our presence on X, increasing our visibility and opportunities to engage with key audiences, including campaigners, legal professionals, researchers, journalists and individuals affected by miscarriages of justice. The platform has enabled us to contribute to ongoing discussions, share timely updates, amplify important campaigns and build connections with others advocating for greater accountability and reform. Participation in Public Events and Advocacy for Reform During the year, we increased our involvement in public events, conferences and discussions addressing miscarriages of justice, false accusations and the urgent need for improvements within the criminal justice system. A particular highlight was our participation in the Nineteen Nurses event in Hereford in June 2025, where one of our directors, Anna, was invited to speak. The event provided an important opportunity to examine the role of expert evidence in criminal trials and the risks associated with its interpretation, reliability and use in securing convictions. Anna presented Spoken Injustice's proposal for reform, outlining concerns about existing practices and identifying areas where greater safeguards, transparency and accountability are needed. This proposal was subsequently published on our website to encourage wider discussion and engagement. In May 2025, Anna also spoke at the University of Bristol, addressing the serious consequences of false accusations and the challenges faced by those who are wrongly accused. This engagement provided an opportunity to contribute to wider discussions about the impact of false allegations, the importance of procedural fairness and the need for effective safeguards against wrongful convictions. We also supported and contributed to activities surrounding International Falsely Accused Day, helping to raise awareness of the profound personal, social, and legal consequences experienced by individuals subjected to false accusations. Our participation reflected our continuing commitment to ensuring that the experiences of those affected are recognised and that their concerns form part of the wider debate on justice reform. These engagements allowed us not only to share our research and proposals but also to strengthen relationships with campaigners, academics, legal practitioners and others committed to addressing systemic injustice. Reporting on Significant Miscarriages of Justice An important part of our work continues to involve following significant legal cases and making complex court decisions understandable to the wider public. During the year, we provided live reporting from the Court of Appeal concerning the quashing of Peter Sullivan's conviction, bringing attention to a miscarriage of justice that had persisted for 38 years. Recognising the significance of this case, we subsequently published an in-depth analysis of the Court of Appeal's decision, explaining the legal issues involved, the circumstances leading to the conviction being overturned and the wider implications for the criminal justice system. Our coverage aimed to go beyond reporting the outcome by helping audiences understand how miscarriages of justice can occur, the difficulties involved in correcting wrongful convictions, and the importance of effective appeal mechanisms. The case provided a powerful reminder of the potentially devastating consequences of wrongful convictions and reinforced the importance of our continued work to promote accountability, transparency and meaningful reform. Contributing to Government Consultations and Legal Reform Initiatives Alongside our public awareness and campaigning activities, we continued to engage directly with formal consultations and initiatives aimed at improving the criminal justice system. During the reporting period, we contributed to Government calls for evidence concerning computer evidence and private prosecutions, submitting our own observations and proposals for reform. These submissions reflected our concerns about the reliability, scrutiny and admissibility of evidence in criminal proceedings, together with the need for appropriate safeguards and accountability within private prosecutions. Our objective was to contribute practical and constructive recommendations that could help reduce the risk of wrongful convictions and strengthen confidence in the administration of justice. We also engaged with the Law Society's Appeal Reform project, recognising the importance of ensuring that individuals who have been wrongly convicted have access to effective and fair mechanisms for challenging their convictions. In April 2025, we supported an initiative led by Cardiff University in connection with the Law Society's call for evidence, contributing to wider efforts to examine shortcomings in the criminal appeals system. We also provided live reporting from Westminster on a Justice Committee evidence session examining the work and performance of the CCRC. Our coverage helped bring greater public attention to the scrutiny of the Commission's role, effectiveness and accountability in identifying and referring potential miscarriages of justice. The Committee's inquiry subsequently resulted in an important report highlighting significant concerns about the CCRC's operations and recommending reforms. This scrutiny contributed to important developments and changes within the Commission, reinforcing the need for greater transparency, accountability and public confidence in an institution that plays a crucial role in correcting miscarriages of justice. Our involvement in these consultations demonstrates our commitment to moving beyond identifying problems and towards proposing practical solutions. By engaging with policymakers, professional bodies and academic institutions, we aim to ensure that the experiences of those affected by miscarriages of justice, together with the lessons emerging from individual cases, inform future reforms. Podcast: Finally, we launched a new podcast series, “In Conversation With”, providing a platform for insightful discussions on a wide range of issues relating to miscarriages of justice and criminal justice reform. Through conversations with a diverse range of guests, including academics, documentary producers, former police officers and individuals who have personally experienced injustice, the podcast explores different perspectives, highlights systemic concerns and encourages informed debate on the challenges facing the criminal justice system. The series has received a warm and enthusiastic response from our community, reflecting a growing appetite for open, thoughtful and accessible discussions on these important subjects. This new initiative represents another significant step in our efforts to raise awareness, amplify voices that might otherwise go unheard and encourage greater public engagement with the need for meaningful justice reform. Looking Ahead The year ended 31 January 2026 marked an important period of growth, increased visibility and continued engagement in the national debate on miscarriages of justice. The expansion of our online audience, our participation in public events, our reporting on landmark legal developments and our contributions to Government and professional consultations have strengthened our ability to raise awareness and advocate for change. While considerable challenges remain within the criminal justice system, the progress made during the year provides a strong foundation for our future activities. We remain committed to challenging injustice, promoting greater scrutiny of criminal convictions, supporting informed public debate and advocating for reforms that strengthen fairness, accountability, and the protection of individuals against wrongful conviction.

Consultation with stakeholders

There has been no stakeholder consultation held. However, we do gather feedback from stakeholder via several means. Our primary stakeholder is the general public, and we gather feedback through comments on our YouTube videos and interactions across our various social media platforms. Feedback from viewers and event participants has been overwhelmingly positive, with many noting that our work has deepened their understanding of the broader implications of specific cases, including high-profile cases such as Peter Sullivan and Lucy Letby. Additionally, we work in close partnership with campaign groups, whom we also view as key stakeholders, by providing tailored media support that amplifies their voices and advances their initiatives. This reporting year included: 1. Video coverage of Nineteen Nurses campaign July 2025 2. Video coverage of protest outside CCRC Headquarter for the group of 'Innocent Failed by the CCRC' – May 2025 3. Video coverage of Bristol University Annual Conference April 25. We also secured for the third year our involvement in International Falsely Accused Day, providing exclusive and comprehensive coverage of the event. Our efforts were praised and appreciated by organisations such as the Falsely Accused Support Organisation (FASO) and False Allegation in the Context of Trust (FACT).
