Thames Valley Together is our combined data project which will change the way we share and use data across the Thames Valley.
The SNA from 2022/23

An introduction from the VRU Director, Stan Gilmour.
Why this year’s SNA looks a little different.
What do we mean by serious violence?
Serious violence fell across the Thames Valley for the third year running in 2021 despite loosening of restrictions put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, analysis by the Data and Targeting Team in the VRU has shown.
Serious violence across the Thames Valley cost the local economy over £125 million in 2021, according to research by the Thames Valley Violence Reduction Unit.
We look at the data available to help us understand who is at risk of serious violence, and how we can better identify them.
Our research priorities for 2022/23 will inform our engagement with academic partners, and ensure we work to produce research that can directly inform our work to reduce violence across the Thames Valley.
Let us know what you think about this years SNA, and what else you’d like to see us produce analysis on throughout the year!
