Our Mission Statement
To work in Partnership with the people of Northamptonshire to create safer communities through the proper punishment and rehabilitation of offenders to reduce crime and risk.
Our Vision
As an emerging Trust, our aim is to be a respected organisation which delivers excellence in the field of public safety serving the people of Northamptonshire.
Welcome to the Northamptonshire Probation Area website. I hope you find the information and news contained herein useful and of interest.
Northamptonshire Probation Area is strongly committed to delivering high quality services to local communities, offenders and victims to protect the public and reduce reoffending. We use risk assessment tools and interventions to impact on the lives of offenders to enable them to change their attitudes and behaviours which can make our communities safer places in which to live and work. Alongside this we work to engage offenders in employment, training or education which we know can have life-changing results. We also seek to reintegrate those who often feel marginalised back into their communities and instil a sense of personal responsibility. A significant part of this work involves appropriate enforcement action where an individual does not co-operate with the work he or she is required to carry out. You will see stories which demonstrate some of our successes in these areas.
All of our workforce seeks to treat all with whom we come into contact with integrity and respect. We are an organisation which values diversity and will strive to utilise talents, skills and experiences whatever a person’s background.
Success comes through partnership. Staff have produced examples of where we have transformed lives and communities by working with other agencies such as the police, prisons, courts, local authorities and voluntary organisations. I believe the more we are linked to local agencies and communities, the greater the opportunities for Northamptonshire to realise the aims highlighted above.
I hope you have enjoyed your visit to our website and we would welcome any feedback or suggestions.
Best wishes
Andy Pemberton
Chief Officer
