Show Notes

Greater Manchesters homicide rates hit a 25-year low, thanks to the Violence Reduction Units multi-agency approach. This unit, comprising police, probation services, health experts, educators, youth workers, councils, and community groups, has successfully reduced knife crime by 15%, robberies by 17%, and hospital visits for assaults by 3% and 9% for young people. This collaborative effort has significantly decreased pressure on emergency services, offering a potential blueprint for other regions battling violent crime.
