Since the establishment of The West Midlands RJ Service Project in 2015 the Service continues to go from strength to strength. What started as a twelve month project is now in its third year, the service has made a phenomenal difference to victims of crime in terms of reducing demand and re-offending.
The project continues to empower victims, giving them resolution and closure to long standing crime and anti-social behaviour issues. In 2016 we received over 800 referrals, our service currently measures customer satisfaction, which indicates a 95% satisfaction rate, from victims who have attended conference.
