trackTR report launch

Join us at the launch of ‘Under represented, under pressure, under resourced’ – The third and final trackTR report into the voluntary sector in Transforming Rehabilitation Since 2015 Clinks have led the tracktr partnership that has been researching the voluntary sector’s experience of the changes to probation services brought about by the Transforming Rehabilitation reforms. We have assessed the impact this has had on organisations, the services they deliver, and the people they support.  Our final report confirms that charities are underrepresented in the government’s £900m Transforming Rehabilitation programme. The voluntary sector’s services are under pressure and under resourced, and charitable funds are being used to deliver the quality of services we want and need from our probation services. The majority of the 132 voluntary organisations we heard from believe that their service users are suffering as a result.  We hope you will join us for the launch of our report and presentation of 11 practical recommendations which we believe can make a difference, and help us to understand what the next generation of probation services could look like. Speakers: 

• Dame Glenys Stacey, HM Chief Inspector of Probation (Chair)
• Anne Fox, Chief Executive, Clinks
• Karl Wilding, Director of Public Policy and Volunteering, National Council for Voluntary Organisations
• Jess Mullen, Head of Policy, Clinks
• David Chantler, Trustee, YSS
