Report Summary

Since launching in 2022, our partnership has led the response to reducing violent crime in the Humber area. Driven by a public health, 'child first' approach, we commissioned this research to support work on strengthening how youth voice informs violence prevention strategy, commissioning and delivery across the region.

This project isn’t about collecting more youth input; it’s about joining up what’s already there by bringing together the vital youth voice activity already ongoing in the region, which engages and advocates for young people - including experiences of safety, crime and community.

The particular focuses for analysis in this report are:

  • Insights that young people have already shared about safety, harm, confidence in public spaces and experiences of violence (e.g.: consultations, reports, campaigns and creative outputs).
  • How organisations currently involve young people in shaping their work.
  • Recommendations from young people and practitioners about how ongoing youth voice could be strengthened and sustained across the system.
