The Nottinghamshire Probation Area provides the Courts with pre-sentence reports to help sentencers reach decisions. 
A report will describe:
- Circumstances of the crime
- Factors involved
- The risk the offender may pose to the public
It will include sentencing options to help the court make a decision.
Improving our services to the courts has been a major priority, and we have invested heavily in better pre-sentence report production practice, administrative support and liaison with courts. All of these have resulted in better relationships with sentencers.
