The Humber Violence Prevention Partnership (VPP) exists to lead and co-ordinate the local response to preventing and reducing Serious Violence through a public health approach. It is one of 20 Home Office-funded Violence Reduction Units across England and Wales. Humber VPP aims to tackle and prevent violence crime in our communities, identifying root causes of violence and adopt an approach to understanding the factor which lead people to commit violence, whether in the home or community. Humber VPP aims to work with these individuals to address the behaviour.
Educational programmes are developed to engage with young people to steer them away from committing violent crime.
