What we do

Nacro, in partnership with Ormiston in Suffolk, offers this holistic service to meet the personal wellbeing needs of males (aged 18 and over) under supervision of the Probation Service.

We also offer this service in Northamptonshire and Hertfordshire.

We work with the wide range of needs of the people who use this service, including interactions and relationships with family, friends and others. We encourage people to engage and participate in activities that will enhance their wellbeing.

This service is part of the Ministry of Justice’s (MOJ) Dynamic Framework, which commissions rehabilitation and resettlement interventions and services across England and Wales.

  • male aged 18 or over who are, or will be, under supervision of probation

My support worker has gained my trust. She is always willing to listen which is a major thing for me. I cannot thank her enough for the help she has given me. It's very rare I open up to people, that in itself is another major thing for me.
