Violence is a problem that affects communities across the country, whether in professional settings like healthcare and retail, or in homes and the places we live our everyday lives. But violence is not an individual matter. Solving the problem requires a public health approach, and the benefits of doing so are clear.
To learn more about those benefits, William speaks to Elizabeth Jones, director of the Kent and Medway Violence Reduction Unit (VRU). She explains the links between public health and preventing violence, the individual and community benefits, and how her VRU has managed to make major strides.
Find out more about Elizabeth and her work at the Kent and Medway VRU.
