Knife crime awareness week coming up

Knife crime awareness week coming up

Taking a stand against knife crime together.

Monday 16th November marks the start of knife crime awareness week (also known as Sceptre). This is a week for all of us - families, businesses, and local authorities - to take a stand and show that knife crime is preventable.

Parents, find helpful resources at https://benkinsella.org.uk/knife-crime-training-for-parents-and-carers/.

While the police will be increasing activity to investigate and deter crime in our neighbourhoods, you can play a vital part in keeping our streets safe. If you have a knife you shouldn’t have, or know of one that needs to be removed, please use one of the many amnesty bins located across London. It’s a safe, anonymous way to make a difference.
