  3. Victims of crime get chance to 'share the pain'

    A scheme which allows victims of crime to meet the offender who committed the offence face to face is being promoted in Lincolnshire.

    Scales of justice

    Restorative Justice, which is run in partnership with the police, is used by about 70 people every year in the county.

    The project allows victims to explain to the offender how their actions affected them, ask questions and seek an explanation from the offender.

    It's a chance for people who have been harmed to tell their story and share the pain and impact of the crime on their lives with the person who caused it."

  6. Cycle safety initiative begins

    "Keep them alive at one point five" is the message Lincolnshire Police is hoping to get across today.

    Project Tandem

    They're educating drivers to leave a 1.5m gap when overtaking cyclists.

    The campaign is part of Road Safety Week.

    The force will have officers out on bikes today and any driver who passes too close will be pulled over and given some advice.

    Essentially, we want to get away from the thinking that you can just squeeze through. That is potentially a life and death decision. Whether you are the cyclist cutting through queues, or the driver passing too close, we want you to think twice."

    Shaun West, Assistant Chief Constable
