Welcome to Lancashire Probation
Managing Risk, Changing Lives, Improving Communities
Lancashire Probation Trust is one of 35 probation trusts in England and Wales, and a statutory criminal justice service. We work together with the the other criminal justice agencies: Police, the Prison Service, the Courts and the Crown Prosecution Service.
In Lancashire our work is serving local people - building safer communities, cutting crime, ensuring public protection and fewer victims. We work in partnerships with many agencies in the county.
We have a clear role to play in managing risk, changing lives and improving communities which will make Lancashire a safer place for everyone.
Probation's role is to:
- Protect the public
- Cut Crime
- Enforce punishment of offenders
- Rehabilitate offenders to law-abiding lives
- Uphold the interests of victims of crime
