• Creating opportunities for people to undertake their Community Payback Order with an unpaid work or other activity requirement within communities and on community projects 

• Working with people who have an offending history to support their recovery and reduce their risk of reoffending within rural and remote rural Highland

This aligns with the Scottish Government’s Recover, Renew and Transform approach to responding to the challenges of COVID-19 across the justice sector.
