HMP Littlehey is a ‘Category C’ prison (men there cannot be trusted in open conditions but are unlikely to try to escape) and a Young Offender Institute. Chapel attendance is entirely voluntary. The Revd Barry Trayhorn, an ordained Pentecostal minister, has worked as a prison gardener since 2011, and has helped with prison chapel services for the past three years at the invitation of the chaplain. Revd Barry was leading worship in the prison chapel in May last year, and his subject was the glorious forgiveness of God for those who repent. He quoted 1Cor.6:9-11. Four days later a complaint was made. Barry was immediately suspended from helping at the prison. He was told that his comments during the service were ‘homophobic’ and breached national prison policy. Last November he felt compelled to resign as gardener. A hearing of Mr Trayhorn’s case began last week at Bedford Employment Tribunal: the outcome is not yet known.
