We did it! Together we raised £4030 during The Big Give Christmas Challenge, exceeding our target! Thank you so much for your support. We look forward to widening the reach of restorative justice and practice over the coming year.

We believe in bringing people together to create shared solutions. Building strong relationships means making decisions together, and repairing relationships after harm involves jointly making agreements for next steps.

Talking about a conflict can bring clarity to the situation. In restorative justice, offenders and those harmed can talk through what happened and why. 🟢 Help us bring restorative justice to more people in Oxford! Your donations via The Big Give (2-9 Dec) will be doubled: lnkd.in/ePW7wkHW

Listening is an important part of restorative practice. Giving everyone space to talk is key to respect & understanding. In listening circles, a 'talking piece' (small item) is passed around. Only the person holding the item is allowed to talk. Please support us! donate.biggive.org/campaign/a05...
