The Government is hoping to cut the reoffending rate among prisoners by having perpetrators of crime meet their victims. Nearly £30m is being set aside for "restorative justice" - where victims of crime meet those responsible for the harm.
Restorative justice will allow victims to "look offenders in the eye" and explain "the impact the crime has had on their life", according to the Government.
Policing minister Damian Green has announced a multi-million pound funding boost for restorative justice measures, which he says will force criminals to "face the consequences of their actions".
He denied restorative justice was a "soft option" and offenders would still face a full punishment.
