UNITE celebrate 15th year throughout 2008

UNITE will be celebrating our 15th anniversary throughout 2008. We began as a pilot project helping to resolve neighbourhood disputes on three Middlesbrough estates. Now we operate across the Tees Valley and in Sunderland, Gateshead, Easington and Hambleton in North Yorkshire.

While our core work remains helping neighbours resolve disputes – over noise, children, and anti-social behaviour – we have branched out and now help resolve disputes between employers and employees, family members and bring perpetrators and victims of crime together in a restorative justice project. We have an annual budget of over £200,000, 15 full and part-time staff and volunteer mediators across the North East.

We would like to thank all of our funders, referrers and volunteers for their support over the last 15 years.
