Circles South East Working with Police Services across the South East

You may have been given the details of  Circles South East  by Police Officers in relation to Project Vigilant or Operation Shield, or you may be seeking support for your sexual thinking yourself.

Circles South East understands that if you are left to manage your potentially harmful sexual thinking on your own, this can lead to behaviour which can cause serious harm to others and have life changing consequences for yourself.

Getting help with your sexual thinking can seem like a big step, but like any other problem, there are 5 steps to getting help from Circles South East.

It might be that a friend, partner or the police have shared with you that your behaviour is starting to worry other people. You may too have realised that you are worried about your sexual thoughts. Or you may at this stage not be worried about your sexual thinking but have other worries in your life such as your accommodation, within your relationships, being socially isolated, money worries or getting stopped by the police.

The Thames Valley Priority Access Model

The Priority Access Model works in Partnership with Thames Valley Police to provide vital quick support to individuals who may be at risk from reoffending. Using highly trained and experienced volunteers Circles South East is able to offer responsive mentoring and enable someone to alter their behaviour before a new offence is committed.

Priority Access support is normally directed to individuals in the community who have completed, or are near to completing their licence, are isolated and lacking other appropriate support networks.
