Performance and Impact

The Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) collects a large amount of information and data to review how our funded programmes are performing as part of our quarterly reporting. 

Our Outcomes Performance Framework groups our programmes under five priority areas, each with a long-term outcome which reflects the VRU's public health approach to reducing and preventing violence. 

The VRU remains committed to working towards sustainable outcomes through three strategic objectives:

• violence is stabilised and reduced
• children and young people feel safer
• community focused, partnership approach to long-term violence solutions.

VRU performance data is recorded and published each quarter. This also includes a summary update of performance, violence trends and how outcomes are measured.
