Reconciliation
After her father died, she committed her life to peaceful resolution and mediation of conflict. After the release of Patrick Magee in 1999 she went on to meet him several times. These meetings over ten months formed the basis of a BBC documentary first broadcast on 13 December 2001.
In July 2003 Berry spoke at the St Ethelberga's center for reconciliation and peace, itself rebuilt after being destroyed by the IRA in the 1993 Bishopsgate bombing. Jo is asked to speak and facilitate workshops around the world in peace building and reconciliation. Their unique reconciliation work has recently been featured in the award winning film, Beyond Right and Wrong.
