The West Yorkshire Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) has launched its Annual Report for 2020/21. The below summary provides an overview of the continued development of the VRU, delivering the resources and interventions required to help prevent and reduce the impact of serious violence across our county.
The unit, which launched in early 2020, has a partnership emphasis, with specialists from health, police, local authorities, education, youth justice, prisons, probation, community groups and others. It takes a fundamentally different approach to violence reduction, one where the public sector institutions and communities that make up West Yorkshire act together to help cut violence through early intervention, prevention, education, and joint working.
