On the second episode of Restorative Conversations, I interview Andrew Hancock, Restorative Justice Coordinator for Darlington (North East England), and Stephen Twist, a barrister and restorative practitioner in Darlington. We talk about the growth of RJ in Darlington in recent years, the development of the Darlington Restorative Justice Hub (formerly Darlington Neighbourhood Resolution), the recruitment, training and supervision of volunteer facilitators, and the differences between practicing law and practicing restorative justice.The image accompanying this podcast dates from November 2014, when Dr. Evelyn Zellerer (second closest to the camera on the left) came to Darlington to train Andrew (closest on the left), Stephen (closest on the right), and a number of other volunteer facilitators and criminal justice practitioners in Circles processes.Their website is currently under development, but there are a number of articles in online, local newspapers where you can find out about them, including these:http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/11637950.Darlington_volunteers_hailed_as_pioneers_for_restorative_justice/http://www.darlingtonandstocktontimes.co.uk/news/11152483.Darlington_restorative_justice_scheme_praised_for_its_effectiveness_by_Ministry_of_Justice/Thanks to www.freesfx.co.uk for the music and to Joel Wright for his help with the editing!
