    Abstract

    Working with colleagues in the Durham Office for the Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) criminologists from Northumbria University (Professor Sarah Soppitt, Dr Rebecca Oswald and Dr Samantha Walker) conducted a small-scale project to help establish, in partnership with the projects funded through Violence Prevention Fund (VPF), what ‘success’ looks like and how it is captured and measured when looking at serious youth violence (SYV) interventions. Specifically, the focus was on four individual projects established through support from the Durham Serious Violence Prevention Partnership, as well as the wider collective impact of the partnership’s activity.
