At the London Crime Reduction Board earlier in the year, the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime asked leaders representing London councils to consider how boroughs can promote the new London Needs You Alive toolkit through schools.
They created the London Needs You Alive toolkit to support schools and colleges to play a part in reducing knife crime by providing resources including:
- campaign material templates
- lesson plans
- inspirational actives
- links to free courses, training and useful contact details
- information about the London Needs You Alive campaign.
Please take time to look at the toolkit as it is a useful resource to help you to educate young people about the dangers of knife possession and how to reduce knife crime.
