Our training and support will help people at a personal, as well as a professional level
To deal more effectively with their own conflicts and challenges and to help others to do so. All our training – in its content and its delivery – is inspired by the philosophy and principles behind Restorative Justice and we are also great fans of non violent communication, originally developed by Marshal Rosenberg.
After our courses people are often inspired to make changes to the way they work
and even go on to transform the culture in which they work. Issues of concern such as inter-personal conflicts, back-biting, bullying,
threats of violence and low-level disruption can become a thing of the past.
We offer a clear, consistent, replicable model of practice – whilst also unleashing people’s creativity, inspiring them to take what they have learnt and adapt it for their own setting.
For further inspiration have a look at Belinda Hopkins’ new edited book, Restorative Theory in Practice, in which 10 practitioners offer different theoretical explanations for what is happening in a restorative meeting. This book will deepen your understanding and fine-tune your practice.
