Past Community Events

Community events

Community is our strongest protection.

The strength of the community can protect our young people against street violence, reduce gang culture and decrease knife crime.

Our community events reduce isolation, provide information and create awareness of the support available. This empowers parents and inspires them to work together to build our young people’s confidence for a brighter future.
