We routinely produce proven reoffending statistics of offenders released from custody or who received a caution or non-custodial conviction at court, but we do not produce solely for those released from custody.

Proven reoffending rates are available by gender in Table A2 Proven reoffending statistics: January to March 2020 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).
