- Supervising over 4,100 people subject to a range of court orders and licences at any given time.
- Delivering behavioural change programmes in custody and in the community covering areas
such as violent offending, sexual offending and drug and alcohol misuse. - Providing a Victim Information Scheme to any person who has been the direct victim of a criminal offence where the offender is subject to supervision by Probation.
- Working alongside statutory and other partners to minimise the risk of harm posed by offenders.
