This report looks at defining and understanding violence in the night time (NTE) economy in Cleveland.
In the report, stakeholders are clear that a range of approaches are needed.
Challenges are not restricted to particular locations. As a result, the wider strategy will need to include venues and their surroundings.
The types of people engaging in violence in the NTE makes it difficult to target a single, high value group. However, alcohol and drugs are widespread issues.
Drunk individuals need to be properly managed. Different age profiles through the night suggest a different approach is needed to address issues before and after midnight.
