Restorative Devon, #together we can

Devon Children's Service journey towards restorative practice becoming our way of being. Developing excellent practice with relationships at the heart.

I was like a volcano—
All the feelings bubbling inside, ready to explode.
But no one gave me the space.
No one asked,
“What’s going on for you?”

[Restorative Devon, #together we can @RP_Devon]

“Why didn’t anyone ask me?”

Everyone was talking about me.
They had meetings, made decisions, shared opinions.
The one who talked the most had only met me twice.
And me?
I was the only one not allowed to speak.
(Devon children services at the pillar 6 :Recording)

Incredible energy at today’s Restorative Practice workshop Multi-agency teams came together to turn theory into practice — led by values, skills & outcomes that matter to our children

This is how change begins. #RestorativePractice #RelationalWork #MultiAgency #RestorativeDevon

“Get here now!!!”
A perpetrator shouted it in a re-enactment. The room went silent. You could hear a pin drop..even the quietest fly. That’s how powerful today’s Domestic Abuse Conference was. Hard stories. Real lives. Impossibleto ignore.

Feeling uplifted after today’s #RestorativePractice workshop! So powerful to see skilled professionals—many new to Devon—connecting, sharing, and strengthening teams. RP is shaping not just how we work with families, but how we work together. #TeamDevon #RelationalPractice #Devon

In restorative practice, relationships are important to foster trust, respect, and open communication, which are key in supporting children. Strong relationships create a sense of safety and belonging. children and families openly share their experiences, and work towards change.

A truly enriching experience at today’s Restorative Practice Workshop! Through open dialogue, active listening, and meaningful reflection, we explored the power of building stronger relationships, fostering trust, and creating a culture of understanding and the connections made

2 days of court skills training
“ this was probably the best training I’ve been on during my ASYE. It was very practical and taught us exactly what we need to know. The trainers were fantastic and it was great to hear examples from personal experience”

This morning, I was emailed the final proof of book 2 before it goes to the printer. I co-authored this book with restorative justice pioneer @ThorsborneMarg. The amount of research and time we have poured into this book was worth it. It looks amazing! https://t.co/6wk8QsB153

Restorative Practices only work school wide when both proactive and responsive practices are in place. If you’re only using it for incidents but not prevention, it fails. You cannot restore a community you didn’t build.

We had a productive Service Development Meeting where our managers collaborated to evaluate our existing plans. The session enabled us to align on how we can positively influence, support, and advance these plans to achieve the best outcomes for the children/families we work with
