The accredited programmes available in prison for those men convicted of a sexual offence with an element of rape are:

  • Horizon
  • Kaizen (Sexual Offence Strand)
  • Healthy Sex Programme (HSP)
  • Specialist programmes for men with learning disabilities are also available.

Programmes will be offered to individuals on the basis that they meet the selection criteria, and that participating in a programme can support them to reduce their risk of recidivism.
