Crime Statistics • Data analysed from the last financial year (Apr 2009 – May 2010) – data provided by GMP (Stretford LPT Intelligence Analyst) • 560 Rowdy and Nuisance Vehicles ASB Incidents over the last financial year of which 60 % related to Youth Involvement. • 440 Rowdy Behaviour Incidents – 75 relate to alcohol – but this is a minimum account of the true figure – alcohol related statistics are very unreliable and misrepresented. • Some of the main drivers of assaults, especially within the Home is thought to be alcohol. With the police data, it is again, like ASB, thought that the figure is underestimated due to a marker having to be placed on the crime when it is reported.

Approach • Bottom – up • Build on the assets of the community • Empower local residents – give ownership of initiatives and involve at every stage
Task • Please get in to small groups, and work through the Driver Diagram • 10 minutes for group task • Share one initiative and its rationale with the workshop. • Think about what you have done on your own Healthy Places Healthy Lives programme and how it could be relevant to the task i.e. Marmot Report, social determinants , prevention rather than detection, up stream thinking etc
