Reducing offending

Fresh Start

We support adults who have been charged with an offence or have an offending history. We strongly believe that early intervention and prevention should be at the heart of reducing offending.

Fresh Start is a referral service committed to helping people to build positive futures. It is an opportunity to get help in meeting your unique needs.

Friendly professionals will treat you with respect and understanding. They will help you with mental health, drug and alcohol use, or other social and lifestyle needs to get you on the path to recovery.

Fresh Start is voluntary, and available to all seeking to improve their quality of life.
