Prioritise a coordinated response to the epidemic of knife crime and deaths in London and the UK. Petition the Home Secretary Amber Rudd to immediately respond to the growing problem of knife murders and its connection to the pervasive problem of gang culture, young people's fear and need to protect themselves and the infiltration of organised crime gangs exploitation of young people.
We need consistent, long-term investment in the organisations that can really expand the work and build proper relationships with young people in London and the UK over the next ten years.

In 2018, knife murders have become an epidemic and crisis in the UK. Young people are carrying knives as a means of defence, as a result of being exploited by organised crime or other complex social problems. There must be a robust response by the government as a priority in order to prevent a generation of young people's lives being destroyed.
