Client: People serving Community Orders

Most convicted offenders serve their sentence in the community. The Probation Service and Youth Offending Teams provide these services. SOVA works closely with these agencies to motivate and support the ex-offender. This assists in the completion of the community sentence. Failure to do so may result in a custodial sentence.

SOVA volunteers provide people serving community orders generalsupport and often assist Probation officers with running courses. Support can include:-

assistance with transport
attending programmes with the offender
raising self-confidence
practical assistance with courses
addressing barriers to completion of the order
