Annual reports
About West Mercia
  • West Mercia Probation Area consists of Worcestershire and Shropshire, both County Council areas, and Herefordshire and Telford and Wrekin Unitary Authorities.

  • We have a wide variety of operating environments from the new towns of Telford and Redditch, through historic county and market towns such as Worcester, Shrewsbury, Hereford and Ludlow.

  • The recent BBC2 series Growing out of Trouble featured one of our innovative projects, and there are plenty of others designed to meet the needs of our diverse local communities.

  • We are a service of just over 400 staff and rank exactly halfway by budget in terms of probation area size.

  • Potential applicants are advised that staff may be expected to travel throughout the area and due to the fact that West Mercia Probation Area is mainly rural, some places operate a very limited public transport system. Therefore it is desirable that staff have their own means of transport.
