Title: Suffering in silence: Children and unreported crime
Summary: This report presents the findings of a Scoping Inquiry into the hidden victimisation of children and
young people, undertaken on behalf of the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for Victims and
Witnesses of Crime. The Inquiry was commissioned in response to findings from the most recent
Crime Survey for England and Wales which indicates that less than one-fifth of children and young
people who experience theft or violent crime report this to the police. The charity Victim Support,
who provides the secretariat to the APPG, undertook research for the Inquiry in partnership with the
University of Bedfordshire. Evidence was gathered in four ways:
- a short review of existing literature;
- an analysis of relevant data sources including the Crime Survey for England and Wales;
- a rapid call for evidence from charities, service providers, statutory bodies and campaigners; and
- three focus groups with children and young people.
