More than 28 per cent of Bradford’s residents are under-18s, a higher proportion than any other city in the UK, leading council chiefs to proudly proclaim it to be Britain’s youngest city. But overseeing such a young population also brings challenges - particularly when Bradford’s child poverty rate is double the national average, and youth services have been cut by 73 per cent in the last decade. This episode follows the police, fire service, community groups and councillors as they battle to protect Bradford from antisocial behaviour and work with the community to improve relationships.
