Dr Dean Wilkinson is a Chartered Coaching Psychologist, with an interest in how people can live improved lives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has extensive experience of evaluation work in the criminal justice settings and has previously made use of large data sets to explore the relationship between specific variables.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dean can help you with setting up data monitoring, and improve data quality, so that an evaluation can be undertaken at a later stage. In cases where data already exists, he can provide analysis and interpretation to answer key questions. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Name of organisation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

West Midlands Violence Reduction Partnership (VRP). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The VRP aimed to reduce serious and violent crime by applying a public health approach. A key challenge was evaluating whether individual interventions effectively contributed to long-term violence reduction and how they aligned with the overall Theory of Change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How it was solved using data <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Through a series of workshops, we worked with the partnership to develop a theory of change, and improve the quality of data routinely collected by the providers of interventions and services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We analysed the data collected by the partnership to assess for effectiveness of the provisions \u2013 using qualitative and quantitative methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We worked with the overall partnership to develop their Theory of Change and mapped the micro-level interventions and commissioned services to identify gaps in services that contribute to a public health approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We developed and implemented methodologies to assess impact of the service, aspiring for the best quality data and robust methods of analysis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What was the impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our work provided critical insights and evidence,  which informed intervention development and commissioning.  We formed an evidence based to underpin the measurable impacts on violence reduction. The data-driven approach informed strategic decisions, improved intervention targeting, and strengthened the public health model’s credibility in crime prevention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
