Would You Like to Talk to a Human?

The direction of travel is becoming clear. 


'You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile'. Seen on Twitter:-

I’m a Probation Officer with the purpose of sharing a positive gaze through the keyhole of Sentence Management. I’ll be sharing the wins, positive reflections and rewards of being a Probation Officer. #probation @hmpps #PositiveVibesOnly #criminaljustice #offenderrehabilitation

I think it’s really important to share our theoretical bases in our #Probation work w/ PoPs. I really enjoy sessions discussing #desistance #cycleofchange #GeneralAggressionModel #SocialLearningTheory and how these can conceptualise their behaviour and reflect to make changes.

Usually I provide them with an out of session task to research the particular theory (taking into consideration their technology capital and diversity needs). Turns into effective work and is a move directly out of #desistance playbook in developing autonomy and self-efficacy.

Had a #BBR post-programme review yesterday with a case. His reflection on his “internal state” influencing his aggressive problem solving solutions was insightful and clear how much of the material he has digested. Spoke fluently re: strategies and skills to prevent reoffending.

A great example to showcase the attitudinal developments and awareness of various risks with a motivated case and a team of knowledgeable, engaging and supportive programme facilitators. #probation #rehabilitation #utilitarianism #criminaljustice

Also on Twitter - Antonia Romeo:-

From Virtual Reality prison simulation to Robot Dogs - great to experience some of the future tech that could help transform service delivery at @MoJGovUK.@Justice_Digital Innovation Campaign in full swing today!

Innovation in service delivery to be more efficient & effective is an important part of our work in MoJ. Good to see how the future of tech is developing & its practical use in the justice system - including thro’ VR which has the potential to help train prison officers.

  3. Total nonsense. Keep the VR and robot dogs, a pen and a paper diary does it for me. It’s all that’s needed to meet with clients and offer help, support and a listening ear. Maybe a dash of Targets for Effective Change. All the rest is a bag of shite #probation #rehabilitation #criminaljustice

  5. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said it is moving with the Home Office to vaccinate migrants at the centre after it revealed on Friday that 39 diphtheria cases had been identified in asylum seekers in England in 2022 as of 10 November.

    And with many foreign nationals ending up on probation, what diseases will be entering our supervision rooms?

  6. Good luck getting anyone on BBR these days! The Courts should review these orders and be shocked by how many fail to start even a year after so called requirement imposed!
