Anti-Social Behaviour - Immediate Justice Scheme Anyone found committing anti-social behaviour will be required to make amends for the detrimental impact they have inflicted on victims and their local communities The Immediate Justice Scheme aims to divert individuals involved in anti-social behaviour towards a more positive path. They will have the opportunity to engage in creative projects and learn new skills that can be applied to their day-to-day lives.
This initiative is not about criminalising children or adults. Its is about educating them on the profound impact anti-social behaviour has on our communities. It’s about giving them a chance to make amends and repair the damage and harm caused.
If there is a victim, they will be kept up to date throughout the process. What happens next?
When someone is identified, an initial assessment will be conducted. Once complete, the individual will attend an ASB workshop. This workshop serves as an educational platform, helping them understand the impact their actions have on victims and our communities.
Following the workshops, an agreed reparative placement will be identified. Throughout this process, the participant will have an allocated caseworker from Remedi.
The number of hours of reparative activity will be determined by the police. The range of hours typically falls between 5 and 20. It’s important to note that these reparative hours are completed on a one-on-one basic with the Remedi caseworker. Remedi’s list of reparative work is extensive and includes activities such as: • Community clean ups
• Supporting community gardens
• Spending time in charity shops
• Foodbanks
• Or directly repairing the harm caused such as painting over graffiti
