Complaints procedure

Make a complaint about HM Prison and Probation Service


Make a complaint about the Prison Service, Probation Service or your experience of a HMPPS service.

If your complaint involves both the Prison Service and the Probation Service, you must submit a separate complaint to each service.

Choose the option that best matches your complaint:

  • Prison Service complaints – if you are a prisoner, member of the public or someone who has had contact with a prison and your complaint is about the Prison Service
  • Probation Service complaints – if you are under Probation Service supervision or a member of the public, and your complaint is about the Probation Service
