This is a short film showing interviews with three graduates of Restorative Thinking's 'Restorative Relationships' programme. The interviews took place in December 2016 at The Well in Barrow, Cumbria.
The programme is based on sound evidence and is congruent with the ‘What Works’ literature. 'Restorative Relationships' is underpinned by DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy), SFT (Solution Focused Therapy) and developmental psychology. It draws on restorative principles and skills, giving participants practical strategies to improve relationships by developing positive self-talk, taking responsibility, resolving conflict and repairing harm.
The programme was delivered in Cumbria as part of the 'Turning the Spotlight' project, 2015-17, funded by the Police and Crime Commissioner.
