• Welcome to our site

    The Probation Association is the employers' organisation, working with and on behalf of probation boards and trusts.

    We are a collective national voice, shaping and influencing opinion, policy and practice and promoting the work of probation services in the delivery of justice and community safety. We provide support to achieve the best in local governance, employment practice, commissioning and service delivery.
