KNIFE//LIFE Project to help eradicate knife crime
Donation protected
Our aim is to help, inspire, motivate and teach our younger generation that carrying knives for whatever the reason is not the answer.
The only place a knife should be used is in a kitchen environment so let’s help them to develop skills that could give them a career, a path to follow and a skill set for life that could take you anywhere in the world.
We all know the pressures of life and the feeling that you need to carry to feel safe, to protect yourself, to establish yourself amongst your peers but we are here to show you another way and prove that carrying a knife is not the correct choice for any reason.
We are not people who haven’t lived this life, we are not from the privileged life where everything was given to us on a platter we are from the same places as you and unfortunately we have seen and lived what makes you feel the need to carry a weapon, we have seen the loss of life of friends, seen families destroyed by one act of craziness and seen the impact it has on our communities.
There is another way, you do have options all we ask is that you give us a little of your time to show you that even if you never take the knife out you could end up in prison, your more likely to be stabbed if you carry, the consequences of what happens if you use and what effects it would have on your family, your loved ones and the wider community, you never know you may actually enjoy what we can offer and long term anything is possible if you want to make a change and create a future for yourself.
