Centralised Integrated Offender Management
hub promoted in city
A
ground-breaking new partnership group called the Integrated Offender
Management hub was promoted last Monday (September 10) at Mansfield
House police station.
The
hub targets offenders causing greatest harm to local communities, and
by working in partnership endeavours to break the offending cycle.
In
an Open Day to promote the work of the hub, senior managers and
representatives from a wide social spectrum in the city and county
attended Mansfield House police station to listen to details of its
work.
The
hub draws officers and expertise from agencies like the police, the
Leicestershire and Rutland Probation Trust, the Leicestershire Youth
Offending Service, and Senior Drugs Workers to work together to gather
and co-ordinate intelligence on convicted offenders or those suspected
of offending.
Case
management meetings are convened to focus on offenders and involve
representatives from Social Services, Community Safety Partnerships,
Childrens Services or any other relevant agency to collectively agree
offender management.
At
its heart, the approach is about bringing people from different
agencies together for a meeting about an offender, to share information
and agree a more joined-up way of working together.
The hub covers Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.
The
event was opened and hosted by Chief Superintendent Rob Nixon, City
Police Commander. He said: “Integrated Offender Management is an
overarching framework for bringing together agencies in local areas to
prioritise interventions with offenders. This is real partnership
working, and I am very excited by the creation of this unit which is
located at Mansfield House police station.”
Presentations
were delivered by Helen West, Chief Executive of Leicestershire and
Rutland Probation Trust as well as Tim Scotson, the Integrated Offender
Management Strategic Manager.
The
work of the hub will cover a wide range of criminal offences arising
from a variety of social situations including domestic violence, mental
health and drug related issues.
