Young People's Experiences of Violence in the Humber Region

Report Summary

Humber Learning Consortium was commissioned by the Humber VPP to deliver a series of focus groups with a diverse range of young people from hotspot areas - across the Humber region - identified using data from our Strategic Needs Assessment.

These sessions explored:

How safe do young people feel and the reasons why.
How young people feel about their local area and community, including the support, activities and facilities available to them.
How young people feel about their future, their hopes, fears and what change they want to see.

40 participants aged between 11 and 25 took part in 10 focus groups across the region. Two individual semi-structured interviews were also completed with young people involved in weapons carrying.
