NPS Probation Service, National
Crime is a complex issue and it demands comprehensive and complex solutions. The National Probation Service (NPS) is a major component in reducing crime. The 18,000 staff of the NPS, and their colleagues in other organisations who support their work, are committed to minimising the impact of crime on communities and especially victims who have been touched by serious violent or sexually violent crimes. They are actively committed to rehabilitate offenders given community sentences and those released from prison; to enforce the conditions of their court orders and release licences and to take whatever steps in their power to protect the public. This website is designed to provide access to information about the service, its work and its effectiveness and to act as a reference point for further information.
