Hi guys probation coming to an end soon. What happens afterwards do the probation officers send reports to a court or something like that.

OBLIGATORY: I'm in Scotland, your mileage may vary.

After I finished my community resolution portion they just sent a report to my social worker as part of their big file on me. Then once I completed my sex offender treatment they put a report together about essentially chronically my journey with them, I was allowed to take a look at it first to correct/check details before it was submitted to the court. I didn't have any follow-up court date or nothing, it just gets submitted and that's that.

Then when I came off the register it was all fairly anti-climatic. I didn't get a letter or anything, it was just a case of I woke up that day and that was it, not entirely sure what I expected to be honest.

I hope this is the kind of info you're after - Feel free to ask away though and I'll try my best to answer, mate.

In England, it just ends. You might be asked to do a little survey in your final interview/appointment. No, seriously. Not exactly a customer satisfaction survey, but asking questions about how you feel you've progressed. Or it might just be a standard appointment with no arrangments made for the next time. If that appointment has already happened, that's it.

Oh I got one of them from social work. It was a wee questionnaire thing to fill out which was supposedly anonymous.

Hi
I had a final meeting that didn't allow questions from me but said they were always available if I wanted to contact them. I did contact them but the first 5 mins was me answering questions on whether I was in a relationship, where I lived etc just so they could note on their dbase.

The 2 times I wrote with "serious" quests regarding their actions it was incredibly hard to get an official response, and they would not support.

Remember with most "organizations" praise is welcomed but difficult questions are not.

Society suggests I must let go of all my expectations but I disagree, as whilst I have a voice, I have hope.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope is for tomorrow else what is left if you remove a mans hope.
