Victim contact officers from Suffolk Probation Area work with victims of sexual and violent offenders sent to prison for 12 months or more.

They keep victims informed about the offender's sentence, provide the opportunity for victims to give their views on proposed conditions surrounding the offender's release, and inform them of any conditions of release which relate to contact with the victim.

Involvement with the service is on a voluntary basis and Victims should hear from our victim contact officers within eight weeks of the offender being sentenced at court.
