My partner's social worker never asked to speak to me before sentencing even though we stay together. Maybe it's just to collaborate whatever your partner told her?

In Turmoil - I'm only guessing but I suspect that social justice in the context of sentencing is a positive thing. I found this on the Centre for Social Justice's website which may be totally not what the probation officer meant but have a read.....

I suspect you're right in your guess that it's all about how you can offer support and help prevent reoffending.

Many thanks rainyday52 for this as you are all aware the week before sentencing seems to be the worst and I am more than likely overthinking it all will await the phonecall on Monday x
