10 steel cylinders sit rusting away. The Great North Sugar Mill in Longmont, Colorado sits abandoned; yet it is always in motion and changing. The walls have transformed into gallery space as urban artists explore the space and leave their visions behind. In the early 1900’s, as many as 600 workers filled the plant as it ran around the clock. The beet sugar industry quickly became very profitable. Decades later though, the outlook had turned as the sugar market became oversaturated. In 1977, the Longmont Sugar factory closed forever. Now the factory sits as a toxic decaying ruin. Inside this very deteriorated building, walls have fallen down, floors have collapsed, and anything salvageable has been removed. Bags of asbestos lay throughout the site alongside pools of PCBs. This space has transformed from a bustling workplace to a haven for explorers and artists alike.

Our "conference room" was a table in the middle of the room. It worked well for a small team.

"Two sergeants of the 29th Division take a moment to survey the situation before them. Earlier in the day, the road below was the scene of heavy fighting - the boundary between the American & German forces. Are they gone? It looks quiet enough... but it always does. These men, veterans, will take their time before deciding to advance. Across these hills lies the enemy's homeland and there will surely be plenty of time for fighting then!" (Recreated for my "Vintage" series)

Greater Manchester Police's Assistant Chief Constable Garry Shewan opens the event.
Police Minister Nick Herbert has told a national conference in Greater Manchester how restorative justice - being delivered by such forces as GMP - is a key element of the Government’s ‘Big Society’ programme.
In a speech to the ‘Restorative Justice, Policing and the Big Society’ event held at Manchester’s Ramada Jarvis Hotel yesterday (Wednesday 16 February), Mr Herbert told representatives from police forces, criminal justice agencies and other organisations: “I am very encouraged by the way restorative justice is being applied. At least three-quarters of police forces are using it was part of their neighbourhood policing.
“Offending must always have consequences, but those consequences should not just be punitive, but also about making good, about repairing and paying back to the victim and to society. That is what restorative justice can deliver - a criminal justice service that never stops thinking about the interests of the victims.
“In recognising the interests of the victims and the power of the community to effect restoration, and in some cases reparation too, we are describing what the Big Society is about.”
Restorative justice puts victim satisfaction at the heart of resolving incidents, making offenders directly accountable to victims of crimes such as criminal damage, minor assaults and shoplifting. Working with police and community-based organisations, victims can decide whether the offender should be subject to the traditional arrest and charge approach or asked to put matters right in a way the victim suggests. Examples have included vandals cleaning up graffiti, written apologies, compensation and even visits to police cells to show how harsh life behind bars is.
Since its launch in May last year, GMP officers have been involved in making more than 1,000 restorative justice disposals.
Assistant Chief Constable Garry Shewan, who is also ACPO lead on restorative justice, opened the conference, saying: “In Greater Manchester there is too much pain and misery created through cycles of crime and antisocial behaviour. We have to do more to reduce the level of re-offending, but, importantly, we have to do more to involve and empower our communities. Restorative justice has been shown to work…it helps restore the confidence of victims and communities.”
The one-day conference was jointly staged by the Association of Chief Police Officers and the Restorative Justice Council.
