THE HISTORY OF AVP

In September 1971, 2200 prisoners at Attica Correctional Facility in New York, rebelled against poor living conditions, demanding social justice and racial equity. 43 people lost their lives in the riots (32 prisoners and 11 correctional officers) and 90 were wounded. 50 years on the Attica riots were documented by academy award winner Stanley Nelson and CBS news.

Attica Prison Riot 50 years later

Several prisoners, who had witnessed the riots, were transferred to Greenhaven Prison in New York and formed a ‘Think Tank’. The group was concerned about the rising number of young men being imprisoned for minor offences and returning for more serious and increasingly violent offences.

At the same time, there was growing global conflict and protests against the Vietnam War. Communities were opposed to the war, the racial and class disparities in drafting people to serve; and the war’s devastating impact on society and loss of lives, since it began in 1955.

Vietnam War Protest Movement

Together, the ‘Think Tank’, the Society of Friends (Quakers), Eddie Ellis (a prisoner who later became recognised for his work on prison reform), Bernard Lafayette (a freedom march activist, working closely with Martin Luther J king) worked together to develop AVP.

The first AVP workshop was delivered in 1975 at Greenhaven Prison in New York (see picture below).

It became apparent that violence and conflict was as much outside the prison gates, as it was inside. Community, school and youth programs, in the form of AVP's, started to spread throughout America and globally. Whilst projects are independent, they remain closely aligned with their Quaker roots and aims to promote social justice and reduce violence. AVP’s are active now in over 60 countries worldwide.

In May 2025, AVP International and AVP USA celebrated 50 years of AVP across the globe at its national gathering at Mantanville University in New York. Below is a picture of some of the AVP International Coordinating Committee who met at the event, provided with permission by AVP International President Don McPhee (top row middle) who is also a volunteer facilitator for AVPB.

WHO IS AVP BRITAIN?

Alternatives to Violence Project Britain (AVPB) became a charitable company on 18.12.2000 (registered by the Charity’s Commission for England and Wales and Companies House as a private limited company by guarantee without share capital). On 16.02.2008, AVPB was registered with the OSCR Scottish charity regulator.

The charity aims to provide conflict resolution programmes, to relieve those affected by violence and abuse in their own lives, through the provision of experiential workshops and a distance learning program. The purpose is to develop people’s abilities to resolve conflict without resorting to violence, finding alternative ways to resolve conflict.

Our Trustees are recruited, via advertisements on LinkedIn, Reach Volunteering, The Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales (ICAEW) and; through Cause Strategy Partners, a non-profit board matching service (Board Lead). Trustees are appointed for a term of three years which can be repeated for a maximum tenure of six years.

We want to say a huge thank you to the following trustees who supported AVPB in 2024-5 and the preceding year/s.

Alexandra Dzurhas-Dotta (resigned 05.02.2025) Catherine Lucy Eves (resigned 05.02.2025) Yuchao Gu (resigned 29.05.2025) Elizabeth Jane Harris (resigned 24.04.2025)

The trustee induction pack for new trustees to the board is currently under development for 2025. A trustee skills audit was completed in early 2025 to identify the skills mix needed on the board, for succession planning and the sustainability of the charity. Skills and experience highlighted were: legal and regulatory compliance, marketing, fundraising, finance and safeguarding.

Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit - guidance Public benefit: reporting (PB3) GOV.UK and have complied with their duty.

We have two part-time staff (1.1FTE), 55 volunteers, and 9 volunteer trainee facilitators (due to commence training in September 2025), working to support the charity in administrative roles, as distance learning assessors and as volunteer facilitators (delivering in-person programmes at our London office and online, across England, Wales and Scotland).

MY EXPERIENCE OF AVPB and TRANSFORMING POWER

We want to thank all our staff and volunteers for their dedication and commitment to AVPB. In our ‘My Experience of AVPB 2024-5’ survey, volunteers (ranging from working with AVPB for several months to over 10 years), told us the value that being part of the AVPB community has brought them and how they ‘live’ AVP principles of Transforming Power in their everyday lives, (see AVP Transforming Power Mandala below).

What value do you get from volunteering at AVPB?

“For me the answer is that I enjoy it! The meeting and interactions with new people is always interesting and helps me learn about myself, and connecting with them gives me a sense of purpose and belonging, as well as the hope that in some tiny way I’m contributing to human happiness (which is one of my personal ‘five commandments’)”

“I learn so much from the AVP workshops and love the fact that we can make a positive difference in people’s lives.”

“It has made me more aware of the mistakes I have made, less judgemental and more aware that everyone’s path in life is unique…provides each one of us with opportunities to learn and grow…”

Trustees Annual Report 2024-5

What is it that we do at AVPB that makes it work?

  1. We are accepting of everyone, but with agreed ground rules and boundaries.

  2. We create a safe space for people to express their deeper feelings, including vulnerability and anxieties - feelings which many men in particular find hard to acknowledge in other contexts which can lead to aggressive and harmful behaviour;

  3. We include games and fun community-building activities which create trust and put people at ease;

  4. We are all teachers and all learners, and put this into practice in our leadership style.

  5. We show participants that we see them as equals who all have something to offer, and that we believe in their capacity to make positive changes in their lives.

5.2% of learners rated the course as OK

97.7% of learners told us that the course met their expectations.

“I cannot thank you enough for the life skills you have given me, I have had several chances to use the information learnt, and I have been told by several people that they have seen quite a large change in my demeanor, when problems crop up.” Prison learner, HMP Littlehey

“This course had been enlightening and got me to think about conflict differently and from other viewpoints, which is important to minimise situations and solve problems in a productive manner. If I had these skills earlier in my life, I may not have committed my crime, but going forward I’m now much more prepared for a crime free life.” Prison learner, HMP Whitemoor

Trustees Annual Report 2024-5

“Just wanted to let you know that yesterday we held a small event at Oakwood for approx 25 prisoners who have recently completed AVP. The Director, Deputy Director and Head of Residence attended to commend the prisoners on completing the course. We wanted to ensure that prisoners understood that as a prison we recognise the efforts they are putting into addressing violent behaviour.

The prisoners reported that it was really nice to be acknowledged and felt proud of themselves for completing the course. There was really good feedback about the course as a whole. Prisoners reported that they like the course and found it very useful. Some stated they had done other courses relating to addressing violence and that AVP acted as a refresher but also taught them new strategies.

They also liked that it was a course they could complete in their own time independently. In particular they liked the feedback that they get when receiving the certificate. They felt that this was a really nice touch for them to understand where they had done well and where they could have improved.

All in all, AVP is viewed as a very positive, well structured and enjoyable course to complete. It has encouraged some to want to do more independent courses to assist with their personal progression.

Thank you for working with us at Oakwood, it's proving to have very positive outcomes for all.” Feedback from Residential Manager - HMP Oakwood, August 2024

THE FUTURE OF AVPB

In March 2025, we had the opportunity of working with the Cranfield Trust who supported our board of trustees to explore and decide on the future direction of AVPB. Our strategy for 2026-8 is as follows:

Our Strategic Priorities 2026-8

AVPB will continue to offer conflict resolution courses to communities and prisons across the UK. In the next 3 years, we will work to ensure that:

  1. We reach more people in the family justice system, through our conflict resolution workshops, empowering them, with the skills to build better relationships and navigate conflict non-violently.

  2. Our distance learning course is reviewed, accredited and approved by HMPPS as a credible learning resource for prisons and we reach more prison learners.

  3. Our conflict resolution workshops are externally evaluated, so that we have the research from which to improve, we can clearly communicate outcomes, measure impact, share our findings and become a known and credible national provider.

  4. We promote the long-term sustainability of the charity through sound governance and financial stability.

Our Supporting Factors

  1. People and Culture: Our staff and volunteers are well-led and trained, feel safe, supported and included, are diverse and guided by our core values and strategic priorities.
