"It doesn’t feel quite right to be writing about Christmas in late October."

But, as Brendan Cox, one of the founding convenors of We Are United: Together at Christmas, explains in Schools Week, we've spent the past year planning something special.

The vision? To host 'Tables of Welcome' across the UK, bringing people together over a Christmas dinner, festive coffee morning, afternoon tea, or whatever works for their community.

As Brendan puts it, "The point is not the menu. It's the invitation."

In an increasingly divided world, this is a simple way to build connection, strengthen relationships, and make room for one another.

Could you join us?

What if justice was not about punishment?

Jacob Dunne's story is a powerful reminder that shame does not change lives. Real transformation comes through relationships, accountability, restoration and healing.

"No hopeful kid has ever joined a gang. They're always fleeing something."

Listen to this episode of The Homeboy Way podcast with Father Greg Boyle, headline speaker at the Restoration Revolution, as he explores why punishment is not the answer to transformation.

“We are counterposed to the system. To the state incarceration modality which is ‘we are going to punish wound.’”

Fr Greg argues that beneath most destructive behaviour is pain, trauma or loss that has never healed. Instead of punishing wound, we need to lead with curiosity, understanding and compassion.

"Despite the evidence against it, there are still a lot of people who think we can punish our way out of violence."

A challenging observation from forensic psychotherapist and Restoration Revolution speaker, Dr Gwen Adshead, but an important one.

In our latest blog post, we explore some of the key themes from Gwen's work and why they matter for anyone interested in creating a safer and more restorative society.

If we're serious about reducing violence, we need to ask difficult questions about what works, what doesn't, and how we build a system that prioritises healing, accountability, and transformation.

What turns someone away from crime, extremism or exploitation?

In a powerful new BBC Radio 4 series, The Turning Point, Jacob Dunne meets the people doing the slow, often unseen work of helping young people change the direction of their lives, and those who can explain what finally reached them.

Across five episodes, Jacob explores stories of escaping county lines, leaving the far right, navigating the manosphere and finding a sense of belonging. Along the way, he shines a light on the patient relationships, support and interventions that can help create lasting change.

If you're interested in what it really takes to build safer communities and support transformation, it's well worth a listen.

And if you'd like to hear more from Jacob, he'll be speaking at the Restoration Revolution this November.

The Restoration Revolution is more than a conference. It’s the beginning of a movement to reimagine justice, restore lives and reshape the future.

Our goal is simple yet ambitious: to create, together, a Manifesto for Justice that offers a new vision for the UK and launch a national conversation about the future of our education, youth work and justice systems.

That’s why we need you.

We are bringing together frontline practitioners and grassroots organisations from classrooms, courtrooms and police stations to prisons, hospitals, charities, businesses, newsrooms and places of worship.

We are gathering those who educate, judge, protect, govern, heal, support, influence and shape policy. Crucially, we will also be joined by people with lived experience of the justice system, including those who have been harmed and those who have caused harm.

Every perspective matters. Every voice belongs. And every person has something essential to contribute.

Together, we will confront the school-to-prison pipeline and explore how education, youth work and justice can become part of one coherent, restorative vision around the kind of society we want to build together.

And, following our conferences, our finalised manifesto will be published and promoted as we invite communities, organisations, institutions and decision-makers across the country to engage with it, challenge it and help turn its vision into action.

The Restoration Revolution is an invitation to reimagine justice itself.
