About Our Programmes
Daybreak has now expanded its services to offer the full range of Restorative Practises. These are used to resolve situations where there has been an incident of harm or conflict.

They can be used in a variety of situations, for example, work based conflict, neighbourhood disputes, offending behaviour, anti-social behaviour and challenging behaviour in schools.
Daybreak has a wide range of Training Programmes and acts as a consultant for anything concerning Family Group Conferences (FGCs).

It also offers training packages for leading professionals in schools, consultation and facilitation of Restorative Conferences.

We also work, across all our programmes, directly with children, young people and family members who have been involved in a meeting and wish to continue to work with us to promote the model.

Daybreak is perceived as a leading agency in promoting and developing FGCs in the UK and has built up a considerable expertise in this field.
