Hi OP. Just came back to see if I could help with info in any way - but it seems all the lovely MNers on this thread have given loads of brill advice.
I hope she has had her reception phonecall by now and you have spoken with her.
If you ring tomorrow morning you should be able to book a visit within the first 24hrs. As she is on remand, she will be eligible to daily visits. I've I'm not sure if Styal have the Emailaprisoner service as mentioned up thread. That service is also linked to an online payment system so you can send money. If not, the best thing is to get a postal order in the post tomorrow. It will be a few days before that 'drops' into her account and she can purchase phone credit. The spending limit is restricted to something like a tenner for the first two weeks - so be prepared for not a lot of communication by phone. After that it goes up to £15.50 a week plus any wages she may earn.
When you go on the initial visit, you should be able to do a hand in of clothes. IIRC HMP prisons allow 7 bottoms and 10 tops. I would advise a mixture of comfy stuff like leggings and tracky bottoms, but also a couple of pairs of jeans and nice tops for visits. Unlimited underwear and socks. Shoes I think is 2 pairs plus shower shoes (which can be flip flops or crocs) Also 2 pyjama sets, slippers and one dressing gown. 1 coat (but not black). No hoods on anything.
Books varies from prison to prison. Some only allow them to be sent in from an approved supplier.
You won't be able to take toiletries in, but photos will be fine.
The most important thing to most prisoners is contact from the outside world. The daily delivery of post is what everyone waits for. You stand there and wait while they call out names. Just a card, or a note or a postcard will mean the world. You can write tonight and she will receive it - even if you haven't got her prisoner number yet.
I'm no lawyer, but from what you've said she may not be away for long at all. Even if she got 9 months, she would only serve half of that, then that time could be shortened even further by release on tag.
She will have seen a GP tonight so hopefully her meds will be sorted.
Whilst away she will have access to education, gym, training courses and employment. She will probably have to do offending behaviour work - to address her offending and any underlying issues. It may just be just what she needs right now.
Sorry if I've repeated lots what others have said. If I think of anything else I will come back.
Good luck OP.
She will be OK
