Work & Development Orders (WDO)
A Work and Development Order can allow eligible people to address outstanding fines through approved activities, including mental health treatment.
Who this is for
- You have eligible unpaid fines
- You’re experiencing hardship, illness or vulnerability
- You’re working with a sponsor or approved health practitioner
What it can cover
Every situation is different, and scheme rules change. As a guide, this pathway can include:
Mental health treatment that may count toward a WDO
Support coordinated with your sponsor where relevant
A non-judgemental, practical approach
How to start
The simplest first step is a confidential enquiry. Tell us your situation and we’ll explain, in plain language, whether this pathway fits and exactly what to do next — with no obligation.
A calm next step
Reach out when you’re ready
There’s no pressure and no obligation. Send a confidential enquiry or request a call back, and we’ll explain your options — including what you may be entitled to and whether it will cost anything.
Your enquiry is private and secure. We’ll explain who sees your information and how it’s stored before you share anything.
We aim to respond within
