Help Keep Our Young People Safe

Knife crime has devastating consequences and can change lives in an instant. We want to remind parents, carers and young people about the serious dangers of carrying knives. What may seem like a means of protection can quickly lead to serious injury, a criminal record, or even loss of life.

Please take the time to speak with your children about the risks, know who they are spending time with, and encourage them to make positive choices. If you are worried about someone carrying a knife or becoming involved in violence, report it. Early action can prevent harm and help keep our young people safe.

Your local Neighbourhood Policing Team will continue to work proactively across Wardleworth, Milkstone and Deeplish to tackle knife crime and protect our communities. Together, we can make a difference.
