High-risk offenders will face greater and closer supervision after release from prison, to cut crime and reduce reoffending.

That means:
✅Thousands more offenders tagged with GPS and alcohol monitors
✅Cutting-edge tech for probation staff
✅Increased probation workforce

[HMPPS @hmpps]

Yesterday Lord Timpson set out future plans for probation staff to strengthen offender monitoring & protect the public.

The Sentencing Act is now law.

Prisons are under pressure. Without reform, the system risked running out of places for dangerous offenders.

A complete breakdown of law and order.

The Sentencing Act will ensure that never happens, while keeping communities safe.

Alcohol fuels 39% of violent crime.

This Christmas, almost 5000 offenders are wearing alcohol monitoring tags, detecting drinking and keeping our streets safe when it matters most.

Today is the first-ever National Children with a Parent in Prison Day!

This has been many years in the making, and we are so appreciative of every single person who has raised awareness of this issue to help make this happen.

Prisons, schools, community groups and other charitable organisations all across the country are holding their own awareness events to mark this day - to amplify the hidden voices of children with a parent in prison.

Our team are at Westminster Chapel for the Parental Imprisonment Lived Experience Conference, joined by over 100 academics, teachers, social workers, third sector workers, police officers, MPs, Lords and Ministers - all dedicated to ensuring children with a parent in prison are heard and seen.
