Violent crime - according to Crime Survey of England and Wales - is lowest since records began. No-one quite sure why. Is it cos we’re ageing?? Everyone is more likely to commit a crime between 18-30 than when older. Country has been ageing. Is this partly why crime has fallen?

Involvement in crime and violence has a devastating impact on children, their communities and wider society.
Identifying effective solutions is essential but many interventions are not evaluated.
Great to be at the launch of @EYV_Lab who are looking to change this.
📣Today we launched the Ending Youth Violence Lab (@EYV_Lab)!
👩🎓This venture seeks to combat the epidemic of youth violence in the UK by better understanding how we can support and empower children at risk of engaging in violent crime. Learn more here👇
