Research into charities on gun
       and knife crime
Crime stoppers
Who is Crime stoppers?

We are an independent charity helping to find criminals and help
solve crimes.

We run the anonymous 0800 555 111 phone number that you can
call to pass on information about crime. Alternatively people can pass
us information anonymously via this website, using our Giving
Information Form.

Callers don't have to give their name or any personal information and
calls cannot be traced. This means you won't need to appear in court
or give a statement to the police.
Fearless
0Youth workers from Fearless, our brand
 for 11 to 16-year-olds, hold workshops
 in schools and youth clubs on crime.
 These sessions cover a variety of crimes,
 including knife crime. We also produce
 free Fearless knife crime posters, which
 you can order from the Fearless.org
 website.
Drop The Weapons
Know when to say no. Picking up a gun or a knife always
makes a situation worse never better.

This is a website from the Metropolitan Police where we aim
to show you how real people can turn away from violent
crime.
If you've got ideas on how to help people to drop the
weapons,
then we would like to hear from you.
You'll also find links to support networks and other
organisations that can help.

0 "I recently dealt with a case at the St Albans Crown
  Court involving a young man of 18 years of age who
  had been charged and convicted of an offence of being
  in possession of a firearm. Charges of firearm
  possession or gun possession now carry minimum
  sentences, and the minimum sentence that this young
  man was facing was 5 years imprisonment.

0 On Saturday 31st March Slough Library will host a live music event
  held by Aik Saath and SWIPE Music to raise awareness of the
  dangers of knife crime.
  The third anti-knife crime music event organised by the two Slough
  charities, will kick off at 7pm on Saturday 31st March on the second
  floor of Slough Library. The acts performing span from Rock to R’n’B
  and back again. Despite the Library’s rule of silence, it is thought to
  be one of the best music venues in the area because of the quality of
  the acoustics that the shelves of books provide.

0 Dear Swipe music

  My name is Charlie MacArthur and I am a media student at Henley College and I am
  creating a
  social action video to raise awareness of the issue of knife crime in the local area.
  I have spent a lot of time researching many different charities and organisations and
  your's really stood out to me , it brings young people together through a common
  interest and uses that as a brilliant tool to get across a really important message.
  I have been gathering footage of interviews with young people trying to find out how
  they feel about the issue and the older generations to find out where they stand on the
  whole thing , but I feel that its very important to get in contact with somebody really
  trying to address this issue and wondered if anybody in your organisation could spare
  a short amount of time for an interview.
  Regards
  Charlie MacArthur
