A whole life prison sentence means that once found guilty and sent to prison the person will not be released, ever, and will live out the rest of their life in jail. This would only be used for very, very serious crimes and/or where the criminal would still be a danger to the public if he or she was ever released. A whole life sentence is quite rare and it's estimated there are only between 35 and 50 people serving whole life sentences in the UK.
A whole life sentence is different to being sent to jail for "life". Depending on the seriousness of the crime a person serving a life sentence could be considered for release (called parole) after, say, 15 years. The minimum term before being considered for parole is set by the judge when the sentence is given to the criminal.
