“…the repetition of menial tasks) are all commonly employed tactics (Bazemore & Maloney, 1994;Harland, 1980;Krajick, 1982;Vass, 1986). The goals of such tactics are well-established; they are intended to humiliate, to mark the offender, and to ostensibly deter through degradation (Bazemore & Karp, 2004;Garfinkel, 1956;Harland, 1980;Kahan, 1998;Krajick, 1982;Pamment & Ellis, 2010;Vass, 1986).…”

In 2001, the Clark County Juvenile Court in Washington State implemented the use of "restorative community service" (RCS) as part of its larger adoption of a restorative justice framework. This paper explores the court's implementation and use of RCS, including: (1) the types of institutional changes made by the court in its development of RCS, (2) the types and qualities of social interactions observed by the researcher through participant observation at several RCS sites, (3) the practical implications of these findings for proponents of restorative justice in the use of community service in youth settings, and (4) the theoretical implications of these findings for sociological and criminological research on community service.

“…Specifically, some programmes, and some government mandates, may further stigmatise and partition service users from their communities by highlighting that they have received sentences, for example, by making them wear uniforms including bright colours or specific badges on their clothes or even their homes. Pamment and Ellis (2010) point out that such approaches are shame-inducing, signalling punitive attitudes, rather than the benefits of community labour or integration. We argue that football-based interventions are naturally positioned to facilitate engagement with informal institutions and access to positive influences in the community based on three factors.…”

Recidivism costs society, communities, families and individuals. Sport is heralded as an accessible way to engage and incentivise people convicted of crime to change their lifestyles. One high‐profile intervention designed to reduce reoffending rates is the Twinning Project, which invites people serving custodial and community sentences to participate in a football‐based programme to gain accredited qualifications with a major football club in their local region. Our primary objective was to investigate how football, which uses some of the biggest brands and regional allegiances in the United Kingdom, might help to bridge the gap between community and paths to desistance. Using a realist approach, we present interview data from people serving sentences in the community and the coaches and probation officers facilitating intervention programmes at two major British football clubs. Specifically, we conducted interviews with staff and service users serving community sentences in a large British city. Based on social identity perspectives on social exclusion/inclusion, we carried out thematic analysis with the focus on social support, social bonding and resulting future orientation. Thematic analysis revealed four themes: (a) gaps in social support; (b) coach as a role model; (c) increased future orientation; and (d) new ways forward. These themes evidenced the struggles people often face before entering the justice system as well as the capacity of high‐level coaching around a meaningful shared social identity to reduce the salience of these hurdles and elicit a sense of optimism towards the future.

“…This approach has been questioned, however. For example, Pamment and Ellis (2010) illustrated that young people have little to no respect for CSOs and saw them as nothing more than ‘hobby bobbies’ that lacked the requisite power to arrest them. This is an interesting finding, similarly reflected in Mawby and Wright (2010) and Paskell (2007), and previously associated with Fielding’s work, in which he noted that, even within the service, community officers were often seen as ‘baby kissers’ (1994: 58).…”

Many calls for assistance received by the police are issues of non-emergency, and with public spending cuts ever-present, there is need to revisit the uses of a single nonemergency number (SNEN) as a way to reduce the non-emergency call volume. This paper is a review of one local service in England. We examine the need and development of SNEN, report the findings of our own research, and conclude that a service such as SNEN is a worthwhile approach that helps reduce the number of inappropriate calls to the police, increases access to services and reduces fear regarding low-level disorder.
