Public invited to Justice Service open day in Inverness

9th January 2026

The Highland Council's Justice Service team in Inverness will be hosting an open day on Wednesday 28 January.

This is a chance for members of the public to come along and find out more about community sentences in Scotland and particularly in Inverness and surrounding areas.

The open day will be divided into four public sessions. Staff will be explaining some of the justice process with emphasis on the work that The Highland Council Justice Service provides to the Court, the Parole Board, Scottish Ministers and other stakeholders.

Each session will be divided in two separate informal presentations; one explaining sentencing and what it means for individuals to complete a Community Payback Order or to be on any type of licence and another session showcasing the work that has been carried out over the years in Inverness and surrounding areas by individuals receiving unpaid work requirements as part of their sentences.

The sessions will take place at 9.30 am, 11.00am, 1.30pm and 3.00pm and will last a maximum of 90 minutes.

Anyone interested in coming along is asked to book a place on one of the sessions in advance by phoning 01463 644900 or emailing cjs.Inverness@highland.gov.uk

The Highland Council Justice Service in Inverness is located at the Justice Centre, Longman Road, IV1 1AH
