This #rjweek2024 we hear from victims of offending behaviour carried out by young people. Feedback from victims is crucial in understanding how we can support young people to repair the harm they caused and give back to their communities, rebuild trust and avoid reoffending.

This #rjweek2024 we share the experience of 2 young people of the Youth Conference Process and how it worked for them. How did it benefit them? What difference does it make? Feedback gathered during consultations with young people helps us to support them better.
