Educational Resources
West Mercia Local Criminal Justice Board is committed to working with communities and raising your awareness about the Criminal Justice System in a variety of ways.
Participation in community events, engaging with diverse groups and talking and listening to people including young people and children and hearing their views is an important aspect of our work.
We have a range of materials including DVDs, and access to professionals in particular roles across the criminal justice agencies who may be able to help in planning lessons, activity days or presenting.
We have have organised our own awareness events during Inside Justice Week and will continue to do so in coming Inside Justice Weeks so keep an eye out for forthcoming Events.
More recently we have developed packages to fit in with the teaching aims of the Justice module of the Society, Health and Development Diploma (SHAD), which covers Criminal Justice. Full teaching notes will also be available to download. We will also be producing a a giant board game, 'The Justice Game' which will inspire questions and conversation about the work of West Mercia Police, West Mercia Crown Prosecution Service, West Mercia Probation Service, HM Courts Service, The Legal Services Commission, Youth Offending Service, and the Prison Service.
