I've previously been on Probation in England, so was unsure what my first Community Payback Order in Scotland would be like. I found the Order to be manageable and that my contact with my social worker was flexible and appropriate for the level of support I needed. They maintained good communication and provided suitable times for Supervisions. I felt they listened to my needs and overall felt valued.
I do believe however that there is less access to services here compared to when I was on probation in England which could be improved.
Overall I would say that Supervisions have helped me identify and re-affirm areas which I need to work on, which the focus work helped me reflect and build skills to help with these.
