Justice Seen, Justice Done is a Home Office Neighbourhood Crime and Justice programme that aims to improve public confidence in how crime is tackled and justice delivered.

It’s a national campaign – raising awareness and understanding of what the public can expect from the police and other agencies, making sure local priorities are tackled and demonstrating that there are tough, visible consequences for those who break the law.

Nottingham Crime & Drugs Partnership works closely with our partners under the ‘Justice Seen, Justice Done’ banner to not only raise the awareness of your rights, but also to improve the Criminal Justice System across Nottingham.

The Justice Seen, Justice Done Priorities are:

• One Dialogue with the Public
• Promoting the Policing Pledge
• Highly visible Community Payback
• Community Crime Fighters
• Support for Victims and Witnesses

One of the most visible aspects of Justice Seen, Justice Done is Community Payback, which aims to increase public confidence in how crime is tackled and justice is delivered.


It is about:

Raising awareness and understanding of the service which the public are entitled to from the police and other agencies Showing the public that the police, the Criminal Justice System and the government are on their side - and that there are tough consequences for criminals.

Making sure that the problems the public are concerned about, like anti-social behaviour and disorder, are tackled and the public know about it.

This is a national campaign with a focus on local delivery. Pioneer Areas, such as Nottingham are a key partner in supporting and delivering the programme locally.

Community Payback is a critical element in the Justice Seen, Justice Done campaign as it demonstrates to the public that community sentences are not soft options and that criminals face tough consequences for their actions.
