Young Social Entrepreneur Competition

Young Social Entrepreneurs Competition

Sponsored by Restorative Justice for All

Do you have a big idea?


RJ4All is celebrating its 10th Anniversary by kicking off the Young Social Entrepreneurs competition! RJ4All is investing in young entrepreneurs in London who are keen to make a positive change through an innovative idea, initiative, or project.


Submit your proposal for your own “RJ4All” project, and you could win the start-up prize.



This competition is for individuals aged 30 or under. The application deadline is November 17, 2023, at 12 PM

RJ4All was founded 10 years ago in Theo’s kitchen. His dream was to establish the first Restorative Justice postcode where power is shared and power abuse is rooted out through the power of dialogue, education, sports and art, as well as the practices of restorative justice.


RJ4All is now recognised as the world’s leading, international restorative justice network with members from over 150 countries. We work in partnership with decision makers, making evidence-based arguments to achieve long-term change. RJ4All is on a mission to build the world’s first restorative justice post-code using its Community Centre in South East London as an international, evidence-based case-study.
