In episode 8 of HP Talks, I speak to Craig Pinkney. A criminologist, Urban Youth Specialist and the founder a director of Solve. A research and training institution that helps organisations understand the causes of violence. 

Craig speaks to me about what inspired him to become a youth worker and create Solve. We also discuss the changing nature of understanding youth violence along with mental health and societal pressures that influence youth violence. Finally, we briefly talk about white privilege and systematic racism.
