Our neighbour would not take part, so we met with the Practitioners for some Conflict Coaching. It really helped to be listened to and to explore how we should move forward from a situation that we previously thought we had no control over.

The Restorative Justice process had the effect of validating and acknowledging the feelings and impact the crime had on me, and that I had the right to feel the way I did.

The patience of the Restorative Justice Practitioners helped me to work out what I needed and what I wanted to hear. It helped me to understand how I’d feel if I didn’t get the answers I wanted.

This session I had with you about conflict resolution was not what I was expecting, it was better. Thank you for your perspective on me and my situation. It has helped me give myself the permission I needed to let go, and stop obsessing on the issues with my neighbour.

Your practitioners were brilliant with the whole situation. I wish they came in sooner, many thanks.

Since I spoke to my neighbour, she has been thinking about her neighbours and how her actions impact other people’s lives. I hope she keeps it up. Thank you so much for your help.

Restorative Justice worked for me. I had tried lots of things that’d helped but it hadn’t gone away. I felt better and have continued to feel better each day. It was like a light switch for me.

Prison took away my responsibility because I just sat in my cell, got three meals a day and did what I wanted. I didn’t grow from it, but Restorative Justice is something I chose to do to change my life, to grow and to face up to my responsibilities.

I just wanted to apologise for my behaviour and reassure them that I would never be a threat to them ever again. It really broke my heart. I thought about the victim, I thought about the impact, and it touched me. I knew I needed to make amends and say sorry.
