LFC FoundationLFC Foundation supports #kNOwKnifeCrime campaign to combat youth knife crime
The LFC Foundation is proud to support the #kNOwKnifeCrime campaign in collaboration with KnifeSavers and Cash for Kids to combat youth knife crime.
The aim of this impactful youth anti-knife crime project is to enhance safety in every secondary school across the Liverpool City Council Combined Authority region by gifting them a KnifeSavers Bleed Control Kit.
Representatives from secondary schools across the region were invited to a special event at Liverpool FC's iconic stadium where attendees were taught about the vital youth anti-knife crime work being undertaken throughout the city.
The young people gained an insight into the essential services provided by KnifeSavers and experienced firsthand the groundbreaking educational technology being incorporated into their already extensive bleed control training.
Franny Hargreaves, LFC Foundation said: “By supporting and collaborating with the #kNOwKnifeCrime campaign and KnifeSavers, we aim to distribute Bleeding Control Packs to secondary schools throughout the Liverpool City Region.
“This initiative goes beyond providing these essential packs; it also conveys important educational messages about knife crime prevention, first aid skills, and safety awareness. We aim to empower students and staff with the knowledge and resources needed to respond if needed in emergencies, ensuring a safer environment for everyone."
Laura Hughes, Founder of the #kNOwKnifeCrime campaign, expressed her enthusiasm for the project, adding: "This is an excellent initiative made possible by the generous support we have received from the LFC Foundation. Being able to donate these vital KnifeSavers bleed control kits to our schools is incredible and sets a standard for other regions across the country."
