Trench Talks - Knife Crime Realities
Trench Talks
Saturday, 28 June 2025 - 24 minutes
In this hard-hitting podcast we explore the growing issue of knife crime impacting youth in their communities. With honesty and lived experience, we dive into the root causes - from peer pressure and gang culture to poor education, music influences, and easy access to weapons.
We also explore the emotional, social, and psychological toll knife crime takes - not just on victims but on families, neighbourhoods, and future opportunities. The hosts discuss the limitations of schools and youth centres, the impact of drill music, and why deterrents like harsher punishments or ID checks might help.
Raw, unfiltered, and thought-provoking, this episode doesn’t just highlight the problem - it encourages young people to choose better paths, seek support, and look out for one another.
