Our New Website is Live
10th April 2026
We are pleased to announce the launch of our newly re-designed website.
Following the launch of our Sentencing Hub in November, we have refreshed our to better incorporate the Hub contents and make the website more user-friendly.
The updated site reflects our ongoing commitment to improving public understanding of sentencing in England and Wales. It brings together our research, analysis, and resources in a more accessible format, making it easier for a wide range of audiences to engage with our work.
A clearer, more accessible experience
Sentencing is complex. One of our core aims is to summarise evidence and information in a way that is clear, accurate, and easy to access. The re-designed website features a cleaner layout and structure, helping users to find what they need more quickly – such as an explainer, a blog post on a key sentencing issue, or an upcoming event. Whether you are a policymaker, practitioner, researcher, or simply interested in how sentencing works, we hope you’ll find it useful.
Research and analysis at your fingertips
Our research remains at the heart of what we do. The new website makes it easier to explore our latest publications and to access our archive of previous work.
The Sentencing Hub is designed to promote understanding of how sentencing works in practice as well as the effectiveness of the sentencing options. The Hub brings together useful information, research findings, and statistics relating to sentencing, and is designed with the needs of different users in mind.
