As the next generation, we want to make sure that every young person is educated on the topic of Knife Crime. We believe that doing this will deter young people from committing bad decisions and become better citizens.
Signing this petition will put London one step closer to becoming one of the safest cities.
Knife crime has been a major problem throughout the past decade. Young members of society are growing up, having to live with the threat of knife crime.
