🚨 Our Chief Inspector Laura Paton will be taking part in a panel discussion at today’s SASO conference in Glasgow alongside LynneThornhill from Sacro and others. She'll be highlighting the benefits of diversion from prosecution and how it could be used even more #SASO2023

Some really interesting and multifaceted insights into #gambling harms, related crimes, and Justice awareness and responses in England & Wales by Andrew Neilson The Howard League at #SASO2023 Conference in Glasgow.

SASO such amazing inputs so far focused on alternative options in the justice system. Evidence of how good collaborative partnership working can achieve positive outcomes.

Jam packed day at SASO annual conference. Lots of inspiring diversionary focused work to celebrate with collaboration, responsivity and positive outcomes at the heart but also reoccurring themes of where and how we can do better across partners and sectors #SASO2023

Rather timely and inspiring to hear about social enterprise The Skill Mill today at the SASO event. Over the last 9.5yrs they have provided environmental and construction focused employment for 432 young people who have been in the justice system 👏#SASO2023

Brilliant SASO conference in Glasgow yesterday exploring the role of #diversion in the CJS. Thank you to Hannah Graham and everyone at SASO for the warm welcome, including The Skill Mill in the programme and the Hon Lord John Scott for chairing Judges Scotland
