People First Conference
As part of Inside Justice Week, GCJB and Gloucestershire Constabulary will be holding a "People First" conference for stakeholders and partners. Delegates will be discussing the introduction of "Citizen Focus" within the criminal justice system. Citizen Focus is a new way of policing in which the needs and expectations of individuals and local communities are always reflected in police decision-making and service.
Magistrates' Briefing
In May 2008, members of the Board met with local Magistrates. Yvette Ball and John Bensted from the Probation Service updated Magistrates on the benefits of community sentences, whilst Steve Ackland from the Police briefed the Magistrates on the success of last year's initiative to make dwelling burglary and robbery "prevalent offences". As a result, both offences have decreased in the county.

The Board held it's latest Consultation Day with staff, partners and stakeholders in January 2008. Around 100 delegates spent the day helping the Board to forumulate their new three year plan.
