Are you concerned about Knife crime? Do you have children developing independence and going out on their own? This Sessions from the Safety Centre support Parents and Carers with early conversations about Knife Crime. The session looks at some of the facts and misconceptions about Knife Crime in England, how it can impact a child’s life, as well as signposting where you can access support.
