We are delighted to welcome Jaimee van Gemerden to The Mint House team as our new part time Events, Training, and Communications Assistant.

From New Zealand, Jaimee has experience working in administrative and church settings. She is a theologian and is particularly interested in supporting churches to better consider restorative principles in their practice.

In her role, Jaimee will provide administrative support to the team. We're really pleased to welcome her to the team!

We have been awarded a National Lottery Community Fund grant to reach new and diverse audiences in the Oxford area with restorative approaches.

As part of this funding, we are able to offer the following to local community groups and organisations:

• Listening circles

• Taster/introductory training

• Storytelling sessions

Please contact us if you are interested in exploring these possibilities or if you can suggest an organisation in or around Oxford which we could reach out to.

We are particularly keen to work with diverse communities and people who haven’t had prior experience of restorative justice and practice.

If you are interested in finding out more or can suggest a community group who might like to work with us then please speak to Abi:
