Knife Surrender Launched In Leeds As Knife Angel Work Continues
*Friday, February 23, 2024*
People in Leeds can help to take potentially deadly weapons off the streets during a week-long knife surrender which starts next week.
The initiative comes as part of the ongoing knife crime intensification month tied to the Knife Angel’s continued residency in the city.
The 27ft tall sculpture, created from over 100,000 seized blades by the British Ironwork Centre, has been on show outside the Royal Armouries Museum since the start of February to highlight the negative effects of violent behaviour and the need for change.
