Thanks for this. V helpful. Here is a question for you. You go to court, and are not expecting to be released, so you are totally unprepared for life “on the out” again. You are released on a community order. No clothes except the ones you are in, no money, no address. What do you do?

WOW!!! This is a massive question and a whole new post. However, for the layperson that has no knowledge of the Criminal Justice System. Putting in the question that, the person was released on a ‘Community Order’, is a bit mis-leading to the lay-person. As this does not mean that the person has been released with a structured Care & Action plan. It just means, the person was released from the courthouse. However, the person has no fixed address, no money, no medication, clothes and not even the basic idea of direction. This is why we have such a revolving door within the process of prisoners re-offending. What chance would that person really have? It’s solid action and structure that people need on release from court or prison. NOT, a lip service. not words like Community Order, Licence, ect. These people need the basics of life, first and foremost…
