Why me? is a national charity that promotes awareness of and access to Restorative Justice. 

Many people affected by crime never get the chance to have their say or get their questions answered. This can leave them feeling stuck and unable to move forwards. 

Being given the opportunity to have a dialogue with the person who harmed them can be transformative for everyone involved. This can be done through a safe and managed process called Restorative Justice. 

Have you been affected by crime or conflict? Do you have unanswered questions? Do you want to have your say? 

Restorative Justice could help.

To find out more about Restorative Justice and whether it could be right for you, contact us via rjservice@why-me.org.
