What the petition asks

The growing number in knife crime and children being bullied and then taking their own lives is growing. We need to help our children grow up strong in there mind as well as their bodies and to stop children being victims through education. Let's build strong children ratherthen repair broken adults

I have over 30years martial arts experience and teach successful children's self defence classes I have took the classical side of martial arts out and made it relevent to modern day life. I have two small children which is my motivation for keeping children safe. We need to start at a young age to educate children so they grow up into decent adults. Let's build strong minded kids so they don't have to use there hands but they will grow with the skills to protect themselves if the worst happens.
