Nottinghamshire Probation Trust (NPT) is a criminal justice agency, with a duty to protect the public and reduce reoffending, by both punishing and rehabilitating offenders. We work alongside the Police, Prison Service, Courts, Crown Prosecution Service, and with voluntary organisations to make your communities a safer place.
Four Probation Local Delivery Units (LDUs) are aligned to local Police Divisions covering Mansfield and Ashfield, Bassetlaw, Newark and Sherwood, Broxtowe, Rushcliffe and Gedling and Nottingham City.
We manage offenders who have either been sentenced to a Community Order or are on a licence from prison, ensuring that the requirements of their sentence are adhered to. As part of their sentence, an offender may be required to undertake a range of activities to help them move away from a life of crime, for example:
- treatment for drug and alcohol problems
- developing basic skills in literacy and numeracy to increase opportunities for future employment
- ‘Community Payback’ – a scheme requiring offenders to work a set number of hours for the benefit of the community
Nottinghamshire Probation Trust takes pride in being one of the country's top performing areas in relation to consistently reducing reoffending - keeping your communities safer.
