Résumé
The College of Policing commissioned RAND Europe to look at how police forces were using accident and emergency (A&E) data. The findings have resulted in the development of a guidance document for forces to make best use of locally available information to help reduce crime. The research is aimed at those working in violence reduction who do not currently use A&E data. It highlights principles for collecting A&E data; good practice on sharing information and how to use A&E data for crime prevention. The work builds on the Cardiff Model for Violence Prevention, used by some forces, which links police and community safety partnerships to make use of A&E data to identify where violent crime is taking place.
