Reducing Reoffending through Multi-Agency Partnerships
Police Foundation Annual Conference 29th November 2017
2. Drivers for Changeโฆโฆ
โข Some evidence of positive impact of previous IOM scheme on reoffending outcomes, but
could do better
โข Heavy focus on crime type (serious acquisitive), affected partner buy-in
โข Adult only scheme
โข Questioned cohort selection
โข Missed opportunities to collaborate?
โข Shifting probation landscape
3. The Evidence Base
Analysis showed:
โข Just 2% of offenders in Lincolnshire had committed 13% of all offences, the top 2% in
Lincoln itself were responsible for more than a quarter (27%) of all offences.
โข 1 in 3 of the top 2% most prolific offenders had committed more than 5 different types
of crime in a year
โข Nearly a quarter had perpetrated DA, nearly half at least one incident of ASB
โข The top 2% most prolific offenders presented multiple complex needs, most often
around mental and physical health, drug and alcohol dependency, accommodation and
relationships. Early childhood trauma was a common feature
โข Initial scoping exercise showed 60% were known to Childrenโs Services, 68% were known
to LPFT (mental health) and 52% were known to street outreach/ homelessness services
โข History of poor engagement with services and attendance at appointments.
โข Short term prison sentences were a common feature and reoffending rates post release
were high
4. Focus attention on the individual and the underlying causes of their offending
โข All prolific offenders now in scope (top 2%, 8 or more offences* in last 12 months),
irrespective of age, gender or geography and regardless of the types of crime being
committed
โข Cohort adoption process redesigned and automated so that all clients meeting the
threshold are assessed in a multi-agency environment
โข โOptionโ scheme
โข โStart with the end in mindโ: to avoid drift, all newly adopted clients have an exit plan
โข A stronger multi-disciplinary partnership to support the team, in the form of both
dedicated staff (managers, analyst), and better access and support from mainstream and
specialist agencies/support services
โข Performance monitoring capability
*police disposals 1-10: Charge, Summons , Caution (Youth and Adult), TIC, Offender has Died, Penalty Notices, Cannabis
Warning, Community Resolution, Prosecution not in Public Interest (CPS decision), Formal action not in public interest (Police
decision)
ARCโฆ.. a refreshed IOM โbrandโ
5. Cohort Offending Profile
Snapshot of cohort in July 2017 (98 individuals):
Committed 1,236 offences (police disposals 1-10) in the 12 months prior, the number of
offences per person ranging from 8 to 46.
Each person committed more than one type of offence, yesโฆshoplifting accounts 60%
but โฆ..the range of offences included:
Assaults, Sexual offences, Domestic Abuse, ASB, Burglary, Robbery, Blackmail, Public
Order, Drug Possession, Theft, Handling and Weapons offences
We see their offending cutting across other victim/perpetrator working arrangements
such as MAPPA, MARAC, ASBRAC and SMRAC.
6. Profile of Under 18โs
โข Common features: parental neglect, bereavement, exposure to domestic abuse, family
conflict and breakdown, limited education, risk-taking behaviours, frequent missing episodes
โข Risks are complex and wide ranging. ARC seek to tackle spectrum of risks in young persons
life
โข All current under 18 year olds are known to Childrenโs Services; either Social Care, Education,
Early Help or LAC teams
โข Intergenerational issues
โข Majority are 16 years of age and over; ARC presents a unique opportunity to effectively
manage transition to adult services
7. Synergies not siloโs
A refreshed approach that aims to better understand and integrate the interdependencies across
partnerships.
ARC scheme aligns itself with existing programmes and working arrangements, to reduce
duplication, achieve efficiencies and ensure synchronized service delivery:
โข Bluelight (treatment resistant drinkers)
โข ACTion Lincs (entrenched rough sleepers)
โข Police Transformation Fund โChange that Lastsโ Pilot Project (domestic abuse perpetrators)
โข MAPPA, MARAC, SMRAC, ASBRAC

10. The Police Officer Affect?.....
Weโd suggest being a Police Officer doesnโt need to be a barrier
โข Its about the relationship, not the job
โข Builds trust and confidence within communities, and across family generations
โข Clear rules of engagement
โข Its workingโฆ
11. Letโs tell you about โYoung Person Aโ
โข 18 year old male adopted by ARC in October 2016

13. Early signs of success
ARC aspires to:
โข Slow down rate and seriousness of offending
โข Achieve long term behavioural change
โข Improve outcomes for individuals, their families and the communities
in which they live
Performance measured six months after adoption onto scheme:
โข 73.5% reduction in rate of offending
โข 74.7% reduction in crime severity score
15. Pause and Reflect....
โWe believe our model is working, but like everyone we are equally keen to learn from
others experiencesโ
Given the early signs of success, we are exploring the expansion of the principles of
ARC in the area of early intervention, with a focus on the 16-24yrs cohort soโฆ..
โข What experiences do you have of the identification and use of predictors to re-
offending?
โข We are open to challenge and would be keen to hear what works for you?
