Based on Against Youth Violence by Luke Billingham and Keir Irwin-Rogers, this briefing covers key messages and policy recommendations that focus on improving the lives of children, young people and families with the aim of reducing youth violence.
It examines how we need to both take seriously the violence inflicted on young people by a small minority of their peers, and also to place that violence within the context of other social harms which blight the lives of Britain’s children.
