“Fabulous! Everything was just brilliant. The trainer’s knowledge was absolutely exemplary and I am so excited about looking at this from an adult offending view”.
"The course was excellent and I have learnt immensely from a strategic point of view, consequently, I am inspired to be the Restorative Justice Advocate not just for my team but the whole authority".
