I live in Cardiff but I am not from here," says Dakowicz. "And, though I often take a few drinks for courage, I was not partying with the people I photographed. I was on the outside watching, observing. So, yes, I am an outsider, but I also interact. I am not a sneaky photographer, trying to shoot something and then run away."The data supply chain needs to be strong too; if ED receptionists, the NHS IT officer who anonymises and shares ED data, or the data analyst lose motivation or are not replaced, this breaks down. In Cardiff, the presentation by the Chief Constable of a community safety award to a senior ED receptionist was highly valued and motivated her and her team for many years. Careful selectivity is needed, including when board members are promoted, deployed elsewhere or retire. Sustained senior leadership is important. The key agencies represented in a violence prevention board, whether at city or region level can be kept engaged if they meet in their various headquarters in turn – in County Hall, the Central Police Station, and the University Hospital where the principal ED is located, for example.

Photograph: Alicia Canter/The Guardian Developing this approach in Cardiff involved several important steps, all with national implementation in mind too. Setting up a sustainable flow of useful, high-quality information from the emergency department of the University Hospital of Wales was crucial. To do this, ED software was adjusted to include facilities to routinely record violence time, date, weapon used, numbers of assailants, relationship between the injured and those who caused injury, and precise location where violence had occurred using a free text facility. A trial showed that digital recording of this information by ED receptionists (termed registrars in the United States) worked far better than paper recording by clinicians who, in any event, were too busy with their clinical duties for this extra task. 8 Anonymisation and sharing of these case-by case data with local authority and police analysts became, and remains, a routine, weekly task for the Health Board IT unit.

The couple, who met through a friend in 2017 and married the same year, are horrified by extremism in any part of the Muslim or non-Muslim community. The clear role that hospital emergency departments can play in preventing violence is woefully neglected in most parts of the world. But the pioneering work of Jonathan Shepherd and the Cardiff University Violence Research Group described here shows that this does not need to be the case. That is why the WHO Prevention of Violence Unit, alongside other global violence prevention partners such as the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, firmly endorse the Cardiff Model and encourage local and national authorities everywhere to implement it.
