Nottinghamshire Probation Area’s new office in Arrival Square, Mansfield will open its doors on Thursday 3 September, following the relocation of staff and services to a modern building funded by the Ministry of Justice.
The new premises replace the former Probation offices on Nottingham Road and Sherwood Court, and will bring together under one roof a wide range of services associated with the management and rehabilitation of offenders, including Community Payback, behaviour changing Programmes, treatment for substance misuse and Court liaison.
The opening is the culmination of over a years work in the planning and relocation of various teams to the building. The new facility will ensure offenders are able to access the support required to help move away from a life of crime – making Mansfield, Ashfield and the surrounding area safer for local people.
Rob Moore, Director of Corporate Services at Nottinghamshire Probation Area said: ‘The Arrival Square office is modern, accessible and provides a working environment well suited to the delivery of our services. The relocation is instrumental in helping us achieve our aims of reducing reoffending and protecting the public and making this large investment reinforces our commitment to crime reduction’.
An official office opening ceremony is planned later in the year.
