The programme will be targeted in six to eight neighbourhoods across London which have experienced high and sustained levels of violence. It is non-prescriptive and empowers voluntary and community sector (VCS) providers to come together to build a Network tasked with developing locally-tailored approaches that meet the needs of the community.

As the MyEnds programme will (by 2026) have been running for five years across multiple different sites, the VRU is interested in looking at the long-term impact of the programme to further build the evidence base on place-based approaches to violence reduction. In particular, we are interested in exploring whether there has been a significant impact on violence, crime or other relevant public health metrics in those areas.
The Impact evaluator will be encouraged to use innovative approaches to develop appropriate control groups, for example, using a synthetic control method.
