Wellbeing and mental health support
We deliver trauma-informed interventions and support to people and communities most affected by knife crime. If you or someone you know is a victim of a knife related incident, you can get mental health support.
Our Critical Incident Community Response model helps us to understand the impact of incidents on local communities and identify the right support. It gives local communities a “voice” on their needs and concerns and directs local resources in their area.
