Details

The Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) Partnership Reference Group is a non-statutory, non-decision making group chaired by the Mayor of London, set up to steer and provide strategic direction and oversight to the work of the Violence Reduction Unit; a multi-disciplinary team comprising of specialists in health, police and local government to lead and deliver a long-term public health approach to tackling the causes of violence crime.

The Reference Group will work in partnership to improve co-ordination between the Metropolitan Police, local authorities, youth services, health services, criminal justice agencies and City Hall, backed by the VRU. It will also build on the work of partners and specifically draw on what works and share best practice.

The VRU Partnership Reference Group meets four times a year. The meetings are closed but the agenda, reports and minutes are available online.
