Move On East (formerly known as "Norfolk ACRO") has existed with a formal constitution since 1983 and became a registered Charity in 1995 and Company Limited by Guarantee in 1999. However, our origins go back to 1971 when a group of people came together to provide a platform for informed discussion and debate with a particular emphasis on the resettlement of offenders and the prevention of crime.
