Identifying the public health needs of a UK probation cohort
A cross-sectional analysis by O. Williams, B.J. Gray, and S.E. Perrett.
This research was conducted in Wales in 2022 and looked at the public health needs of a cross sectional group of probation service users in Wales. Surveys were completed by 257 people on probation as part of a local health needs assessment. Results were compared with the general population responses from the National Survey for Wales (2021–22). People on probation were 4.2 times more likely to self-report not-good general health (fair, bad or very bad) than the general population.
