Building good relationships with partners, stakeholders and communities is vital to gaining a wider understanding of violence in the West Midlands.
Work is ongoing to cement existing relationships, establish new ones and set up data-sharing agreements where gaps in knowledge have been identified.
Below you will find links to partners’ analysis, strategic documents and data sources. We hope the sharing of this kind of data will lead to a richer understanding of the problems we face.
