How Criminal Justice Hub is connected to Conviction and how the project keeps its public information focused on users.
Criminal Justice Hub is a project operated by Conviction. This page explains the relationship in plain English.
Conviction supports the project so that volunteers can focus on building useful public information, tools and research-led content.
Conviction helps provide the organisational support around Criminal Justice Hub. That support can include governance, infrastructure, accountability and practical help to keep the project moving.
Criminal Justice Hub designs and publishes public information about the criminal justice system in England and Wales. This includes guidance, prison information, policy libraries, data tools, calculators, maps and other resources.
Our content is shaped by user needs, public sources, feedback, accessibility standards and research. We aim to explain what is known, link to official sources where useful, and update content when policy, law or services change.
Criminal Justice Hub is not a court, police force, prison, probation service, government department or regulator. The website provides general information and tools. It does not provide legal advice or representation.
The hub helps people understand processes and find resources. It is not a substitute for advice from a qualified professional about an individual case.
Feedback, user research and content insight data help us decide what to improve next.
Conviction and its Criminal Justice Hub project focus on practical, human-centred support for people affected by the criminal justice system.
Criminal Justice Hub focuses on guidance, directories, tools and public-interest information.
