A0415 - Provision of Restorative Justice Hub and Cluster Service

The Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority seeks to appoint an Independent Provider to establish a Restorative Justice Service. Based on public service reform principles, the provider will deliver the service to users across Greater Manchester through a hub and cluster model. The service will work with offenders to reduce recidivism, and work with the wider criminal justice partners across Greater Manchester to understand offenders needs, identify gaps and help support services to address them. Victims and Offenders must be placed at the heart of service delivery to bring about positive and sustainable outcomes across Greater Manchester, with the emphasis of the victim’s wishes being core to delivery. The Deputy Mayor’s aim is for the provider to deliver a service which will ensure that all victims in Greater Manchester have access to a range of restorative approaches that fit with their needs, helping them to cope and recover from the crime or incident they have experienced, and to ensure that all offenders are able to consider restorative approaches to help them understand the consequences of their actions and change their behaviour to prevent re-offending. All services users both victims and offenders will need pathways of support to be in place in order to ensure that change is sustained. This specification also seeks to embed a culture of restorative approaches across the partnership agencies and voluntary sector in Greater Manchester through training and workforce development. The aim is to provide a seamless Restorative Justice Service to users across Greater Manchester through the provision of a hub and cluster model, fully integrated with local services and community organisations.
