People who have broken the law may be given a sentence in the community which can involve carrying out a number of hours of unpaid work to help them give back to the community for their actions.
Background:
Unpaid work can be imposed by the court as part of a requirement of a Community Payback Order, formerly known as community service and is supervised by the Justice Social Work Service.
Many faith groups, community organisations and voluntary groups make referrals to Justice services regarding projects they would like to see undertaken as unpaid work, however, all the projects must meet strict criteria:
•it must not take away paid work from others
•no one must make a profit from the work
•it must be worthwhile, constructive and give those who have come into conflict with the law new skills
•individuals who have come into conflict with the law must be seen to be ‘paying back’ to the community for their actions
There are two types of work projects available:
•team placements
•individual placements
The type of work which can be done by teams includes:
•gardening
•painting
•joinery
•furniture collection and deliveries
•charity collections
•graffiti removal
Individual placements can include work with:
•voluntary agencies
•charity shops
•churches
•community groups

I learned what it means when 2-year-olds REALLY decide to push boundaries! I survived though (and of course he did, too). He still had a lot of fun and learning today despite the boundary pushing. For more photographs, see today's blog post.

Community justice is where people who have broken the law are held to account and supported to reconnect and contribute to their communities.
Where it is safe to do so, people who commit certain crimes receive community-based sentences. This can include treatment for underlying issues such as drug or alcohol addiction, unpaid work, fines and compensation or restrictions of liberty such as electronic tagging and curfews.
The evidence shows community justice can help people stop breaking the law again leading to fewer victims and safer communities.
