Our vision
We all want to be seen, heard, and valued.
Young people are no different.
By creating the space for them to feel understood and listened to, we can empower young people to reach their potential.
At Minus Violence, we’re driving a movement to make that happen. We work within schools, communities, and organisations offering practical sessions, programmes, and workshops designed to support young people, to foster safe spaces, and to create open dialogues.
Born as a response to a pandemic of youth violence across the UK, Minus Violence is built on twenty years’ of expertise in youth intervention work.
The movement continues to shape shift in order to reach the people who need us most: those vulnerable to life-threatening behaviour involving gangs, guns, knife crime, and extremism.
This isn’t something that is going to happen overnight. It involves working with communities and coming together as a society to address the root causes that can lead to violence and conflict. For this to be a success, we all need to be invested.
Testimonials
The only way we can promote our message of anti-violence and anti-conflict is by coming together.
