An exciting opportunity has arisen for a thoughtful, skilled and knowledgeable practitioner to join the Forensic Outreach Liaison Service (FOLS). The post covers Hull, East Yorkshire and North East Lincolnshire.

The Forensic Outreach and Liaison Service (FOLS) works to reduce or safely manage behaviour amongst people with a learning disability (LD) and/or autism which may put members of the public at risk and would otherwise lead to contact with the criminal justice system or admission to a secure hospital.

This is delivered through the six core functions of the service:

- Forensic risk assessment and management.
- Offence specific therapeutic interventions and treatments.
- Case management.
- Training to internal & external agencies.
- Consultation.
- In-reach to ensure safe and timely discharge.
