We’ve Got Your Boy: Episode 5, The Streets Don’t Love You
In the fifth and final episode of our investigative podcast series We’ve Got Your Boy, we explore the role of love in addressing the issues underpinning serious youth violence in Bristol and beyond.
We look at why plans to transform the youth justice system are stalling with the opening, and then sudden closure, of the country’s first ‘secure school’ – a unit and long term government plan that campaigners had high hopes for.
Other countries, like Scotland, have long treated serious youth violence as a public health issue instead of a criminal one. Some don’t imprison children under 16 at all. There’s good progress happening here, too, but change is slow.
