About CURV

CURV is one of 20 violence reduction units across the UK committed to reducing – and ultimately preventing – serious violence.

CURV will use leadership, system change and data-sharing to help reduce violent crime across Cleveland.

Violence Reduction Units (VRUs) are a key part of the Government’s work to tackle serious, violent crime across Britain.

The CURV Response Strategy sets out how Cleveland's violence reduction partnership will work with partners to reduce violent crime across the area.

CURV commissioned a Strategic Needs Assessment to understand the scale, nature and drivers of violent crime in Cleveland.

CURV commissions interventions to deter people from offending and to address the root causes of violence.
