I just wondered if anybody through the other side could help.

My oh has been told his unpaid work will start soon but it says every Saturday is that right? He has two years to do it in. His po said it would be once or twice a month

Thanks

My partner, because he works full time, had his community service once a week on Sundays. Slots can be hard to come by, it took a few months after sentencing to get my partner to start. Ideally it should be once a week. How many hours does your OH need to do? Mine had 200 hours.

My partner also did his through the pandemic, and so his hours were sporadic. But he completed them in time. Some hours can be taken off if signing up to courses- the PO will be ae to help with this

Thankyou both it does sound normal then I don't know why his po said that. His got 120 hours so apparently it's 7 hours a week as he does 60 odd hours a week Monday to Friday she did offer him to do Sunday aswell. I've worked out it should be all completed by April if it sticks to every week so at least will have it out of the way then. His starts the weekend after Christmas they have got it sorted really quickly he only got sentenced 3 weeks ago

My person had a meeting to get his signed up to it . Said he can do 60 hours online I think . He met with the guy that runs the community pay back they have give him a fake name and told him if people ask say he was charged with asualt.

To be fair this part of the process has been the least hassle the guy that drives the bus and supervises them is down to earth and most of the other lads don't turn up half of the time .

It would be better if he could get online some of the hours done. They don't give much time to do normally weekend things do they
