Find away to reduce knife crime amongst the youth(people are dying)!!!!

Petition Details

Too many young people are either being threatened, injured and even killed by knife crime, this needs to stop. The UK has a major issue with knife crime.

Additional Information

There were 39,818 knife crime offences in the 12 months ending September 2018.

This is a two-thirds increase from the low-point in the year ending March 2014, when there were 23,945 offences, and is the highest number since comparable data was compiled.

These statistics do not include those from Greater Manchester Police because of data recording issues.

Out of the 44 police forces, 42 recorded a rise in knife crime since 2011.
