Knife Crime Awareness Workshop - Youth Workers & Practitioners

The Ben Kinsella Trust invites members of the community to come together to learn how we can tackle serious youth violence, knife crime, and the important supportive role that communities have in preventing children and young people being criminally exploited. 

Our training sessions are intended for members of the community, youth workers, practitioners, community leaders, faith leaders, local businesses and others who wish to tackle serious youth violence. 

This programme covers the following topics:

• Understanding knife crime from a young people’s perspectives
• The signs and stages of child exploitation
• Gangs and gang-life
• Exploring the link between trauma and exploitation
• Consider online harms, social media, slang and gang-related music
• Understanding how ‘issues’ with peers can escalate and how young people can manage them
• Empowering young people to prevent harm; the SAFE ‘T’s approach
• Further support and resources available
