We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Set up and fund community champion schemes to help in the fight against knife crime. More details
Submitted by Ali Bevan of Communities against knife crime – Deadline to sign up by: 15 September 2009 – Signatures: 34
More details from petition creator
Where communities are strong and cohesive, crime and fear of crime is lessened. More needs to be done to address the underling causes of knife crime and boost communities. This could be achieved by the setting up of local community champions within the existing framework of local participation. Working alongside judicial reform which makes carrying concealed weapons an offence which carries a mandatory prison sentence would go a long way to promoting public confidence.
