Bob Richards and Steve Shepherd are two Ex Prison Officers with 43 years’ experience between them. They joined the Service at different times and met in the visits department at HMP Belmarsh, where they formed a friendship that will last a lifetime. They looked out for each other while working with some of Britain’s most dangerous and notorious prisoners, including murderers, rapists, terrorists, drug dealers and armed robbers. They managed to do this every day with a sense of humour and a sense of pride.
