Due to the success of the first three phases
of the campaign, a decision has been made to run a fourth phase.
Phase 4 of the campaign will take a preventative approach to
tackling violence. The campaign aims include:
• Raising awareness of positive alternatives to violence among
young people aged between 10 and 25 years.
• Reassuring young people in this age group and their
communities that work is being done to reduce violent crime in
Greater Manchester, building on the community cohesion element of
Phase 3.
• Raising awareness of the support and interventions available
to young people across the city-region, particularly in hot spot
areas.
• Position the I am Greater website as a platform for young
people to access guidance, alternative opportunities and
support.
• Engage with role models in order to increase the likelihood
of young people to take an action against violence or to access a
different path.
