Built by Service Users to Support Service Users

SherlockAI is a not-for-profit organisation. We passionately believe in supporting those engaged with the criminal justice system to create better lives for themselves and our communities. We are a team of people with lived experience of the criminal justice system, Probation workers and people who have years of experience within the third sector. We have the combined experience to provide excellent service to our partners.
