Hi everyone, I was sentenced in early March this year to a 12 month community order (following a guilty verdict for a breach of a restraining order) with 100 hours unpaid work to complete (finished before July) and I understand I am required to undertake monthly face to face visits with my probation officer until February 2019 at least.  It must be stressed I have no issue with this.  I guess this arrangement is to ensure I continue to toe the line and report any changes, issues, difficulties, etc.  But is there any other reason for these meetings?  Is there something I'm overlooking?  Any comments from those with more experience than me would be very welcome.
