Youth street gangs are a worrying phenomenon bringing fear, crime and often tragedy into the communities in which they operate. This book is designed to raise awareness of gang culture in the UK including the various reasons why young people are attracted to and drawn into gangs. It also suggests practical ways to help schools and communities tackle the problem and for young people to stay clear of or break away from gangs.What makes children as young as ten want to join a gang? How does gang grooming work? What are the 'Three R's' of gang life? Does drill and grime music promote gang activity? How can communities work together to tackle gangs? What are Joint Enterprise convictions and do they help or make things worse? These questions and more are addressed within.Written by someone with personal experience of growing up under the shadow of gangs and youth violence and containing research, case studies, discussion points and engaging activities, this book is for everyone: schools, parents, community members and young people themselves.
