Ealing Council's Youth Justice Service reported a significant drop in re-offending rates among young people in October 2026.

Ealing Council's Youth Justice Service reported in October 2026 a significant drop in re-offending rates among young people, falling from 31.7% in the 2021-22 cohort to 17.3% in the 2023-24 cohort. The service noted that its reoffending rates per reoffender remain below London and national averages. Serious youth violence also decreased from 11 per 10,000 in 2024-25 to 4.99 per 10,000 in 2025-26, with robbery being the principal serious violence offence.

There are no upcoming council meetings scheduled to specifically discuss re-offending rates. Barnet's Safer Communities Partnership Board discussed re-offending rates as part of performance updates on community safety in November 2025. This topic concerns the rate at which young people commit further offences after previous involvement with the justice system.
