Title: Teenagers at risk: The safeguarding needs of young people in gangs and violent peer groups
Summary: Following recent spate of reported knife-and gun-related deaths, the NSPCC has identified an urgent need to better understand the dynamics that underpin youth offending, "gang" membership and violence. This briefing aims to open a more balanced debate on "gang culture", explores the true prevalence of gun and knife possession, and examines the risk factors that can underpin group-based offending behavior, and how these affect the safeguarding needs of the children and young people.
