The Knife Angel has become the focal point of conversations as it was unveiled earlier this month (December 1st 2023) at Gallery Square, Walsall,
Using our innovative KIC Digital Graffiti Wall and KIC Pop-up Podcasting Studio KIC Live engaged attendees in conversations surrounding community safety, knife crime, their stories and experiences and what it means to have the Knife Angel in Walsall.
Continuing the conversation on Knife Crime KIC Live visited Walsall College (December 19th 2023) to speak with students about their thoughts on knife crimes, the impact knife crime has on individuals and the community, why people carry knives, and how knife crime can be prevented.
