About
Youth violence prevention through cultural awareness. The essential contextual foundation for every professional working in safeguarding, education, policing, social care, healthcare, or youth work. Understand where modern gang language comes from, how it spread, and what it means for your practice today. Before you can assess a threat, you need to understand the environment in which it was made. This programme provides the historical and contextual foundation by explaining the transformation of UK gang culture across three distinct phases — from postcode-based territorial gangs, through the drill music revolution of 2015–2019, to the sophisticated digital-physical hybrid model that practitioners are navigating today. It explains basic gang terminology, how it spread nationally, and what the current operating environment looks like for professionals in every sector.
