Once a restorative conference has been concluded it is not the end of the process. For many, participating in a restorative process is an emotional rollercoaster. It is essential that restorative practitioners provide support to both participants during this time. How this looks will of course be determined by the needs of the individuals involved.
During this episode we will be exploring what happens once the conference is concluded and will be asking Gemma and Rob, what support they were offered and how effective this was.

Series One - Episode Seven
Over the past six episodes we’ve learnt more about what restorative justice is and heard first hand from Gemma and Rob, their experiences of taking part in a restorative process. However, we know that access to restorative services is patchy and the opportunity to participate is not always available.
During the final episode of this season, we’ll be exploring what the future holds for restorative justice and what needs to happen to ensure that restorative justice is available to all.
