Activity Type:

Focused deterrence

Setting:

About the project

In the first grant round of our Agency Collaboration Fund we’re investing in a multi-agency approach, which research has shown to be particularly effective at reducing violent crime: focused deterrence.

West Midlands VRU will develop this community-led, partnership approach to preventing violence in Coventry and Wolverhampton.

We want to build on the current evidence and improve our understanding of how agencies can best share data, power and information to successfully implement a focused deterrence approach.
