Abstract

Merseyside is one of several areas allocated funding since 2019 by the UK government to establish a Violence Reduction Unit. To inform the continued development of the Merseyside Violence Reduction Partnership (MVRP) since November 2019, Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU), have been commissioned to evaluate the MVRP as a whole (Quigg et al, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023), and selected work programmes. In addition, since 2022/23, LJMU have been commissioned to implement additional research to fill gaps in local knowledge. This report forms one of a suite of outputs from the 2025/26 research and evaluation work programme and specifically presents an evaluation of the Custody Navigators programme.
