Remember the National Probation Centenary Service at Westminster Abbey on Monday 11th June 2007 celebrating 100 Years since the 1907 Probation of Offenders Act established the fundamental principles of Probation Practice. The Staffordshire and West Midlands Probation Trust (SWMPT) even produced a fancy brochure to mark the occasion. But how did it manage to list on Page 23 the following :-
"2014 Transforming Rehabilitation Reform Programme commences"
When was this created and printed? Not 2007 or anywhere near that date. I believe it was possibly generated (circa 2014) as a desperate last minute reflection on how good things had been before we were engulfed in the TR crisis. The final Swan Song before the tragic end of Probation as we all new it.
Use the link below to reflect on times past.
