There's a new face within the Island's probation service. Lynda Watts has been appointed Community Service Officer, and will be responsible for ensuring the successful completion of community service orders made by the courts.
Mrs Watts will be working with colleagues to assess an offender's suitability for this kind of sentencing, and will be a familiar sight at the High Bailiff's and Magistrate's courts each week.
She's new to the probation service - having previously worked in banking - but says that compliance and audit skills are important in her new job too:
Island's finances 'in a better position than most other jurisdictions'
Completion of assisted dying bill 'the most significant moment of 2025'
Keep dogs away from Garwick Beach for next few days
Cost of sending a letter on the Island to increase in January
