THERE was a Royal visit in West Devon last Friday when Princess Anne came to Dartmoor Prison to hear all about a special charity. The princess was at the prison to unveil a plaque marking the opening of a new video suite dedicated to Storybook Dads ? a project in which prisoners record a story for their children using digital technology to enhance the tales. Also there was the charity?s patron Terry Waite, the former envoy to the Archbishop of Canterbury, who was held captive in Beirut after being kidnapped during peace negotiations in the late 1980s. Princess Anne also visited the prison gymnasium, where PE senior manager Steve Worsley introduced her to a special project where prisoners help adults with learning disabilities from Fairwinds Special Development Centre in Paignton, who use the facilities to exercise. The princess and Mr Waite are pictured here with Sharon Berry, chief executive of Storybook Dads.
