Crown Prosecution Service

About us

The Sheffield office of the Yorkshire & Humber Crown Prosecution Service is located at Greenfield House, on Scotland Street.

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is the main prosecuting authority in England and Wales. We work with all agencies in the criminal justice system, and liaise closely with the police, although we are independent from them.

The CPS has 14 operating Areas across England and Wales. CPS Yorkshire and Humberside is one of the largest CPS Areas outside London, serving a population of over five million. The Area covers West Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, East Yorkshire, the Humber, and North East Lincolnshire.
