Circles target people convicted of sex offences who are at high risk of reoffending and social isolation. They bring a group of volunteers from the community together with the offender, called the core member, to support and hold him to account. The aims of the research were to document and assess the operation and consider the progress of the Fife Circles project over the four years of its existence. The research gathered views of those involved in the Circles scheme, observed practices on site and reviewed the available literature and programme documents to assess whether the Fife CoSA supports overall risk management of a concerning group of offenders. A key question of this research is whether an offender's risk of reoffending is likely to have been affected by the involvement in a circle.
