My heart goes out to everyone grieving the loss of Ann Widdecombe. Having lost my own father, Conservative MP Sir Anthony Berry, to terrorism I know the pain these events leave behind. Let us reject fear and violence, choosing compassion over hatred and unity over division.

Such a privilege to receive the award from the Restorative Justice Council for Significant Contribution Award to RJ. Thank you Jim, always a joy to speak about everything restorative with you!

Great to meet up with @JoBerry9 earlier this week and to present her with the @RJCouncil Significant Contribution Award. Jo’s decades‑long commitment to peacebuilding and RJ continues to inspire so many across our sector. An honour to recognise her extraordinary impact.
