The Peer Action Collection (PAC), a youth led network, has published a new report looking at how children and young people are impacted by violence across England and Wales. The report focuses on the second phase of PAC which involved young people designing and delivering peer research, surveying young people, and drawing on their own lived experiences. Findings show: safe places and positive activities matter to young people; there is a gap in consistent mental health support for young people; trusted adults make a big difference; and involving young people builds trust and engagement.
