Tackling violence and knife crime in our city remains an absolute priority for us but it depends on partnerships across a number of sectors, not just the police, it includes education, housing, social and youth services. Every agency is crucial in supporting the city move towards a future free from violence and tackling the root causes of violent crime.

We urge communities to keep reporting intelligence around knife crime so that together we can continue to tackle this threat in society.
