Abstract

This article seeks to both raise awareness of MASIPs, and of the success of the three current MASIPs. This will lead on to consider the value that MASIPs such as Cheshire’s Harm Reduction Unit has for the Probation Service in managing and understanding Stalking behaviour. The article will sum up the findings of the MASIP evaluation report (Tompson et al, 2020), discussion of the Super-complaint on the police response to stalking (Suzy Lamplugh Trust, 2022) and, the more recent London Stalking Review (London Victim’s Commissioner, 2024) to consider the potential gaps across the country in managing the risk of those committing stalking offences. This article will make note of two key charitable trusts (Alice Ruggles Trust Website, 2024; The Suzy Lamplugh Trust Website, 2024) working to support victims and perpetrators of Stalking and providing necessary training and awareness across the country. The article will conclude that there should be provisions to increase the number of MASIPs across the country to protect and support victims, and effectively manage the risk and support stalking perpetrators.
