In May 2024, we had the privilege of hosting an enlightening Parent and Carer session with Anti-Violence Campaigner, Alison Cope.

Alison Cope delivers hard-hitting and memorable workshops about the harsh realities and repercussions of youth violence. Alison's impactful presentations delve into crucial topics such as the significance of prevention, the profound impact of choices on loved ones, and ways in which both young people and caregivers can nurture hope for the future.

Alison continues to deliver sessions across Greater Manchester high schools and colleges. Each session provides an opportunity to find out what young people think about knife crime, offer reassurance, bring home the realities that picking up a knife will never resolve a situation, and empower young people to speak up so that support can be provided where needed. Several safeguarding referrals and requests for further support have been generated because of the sessions.
