Resource Pack: The James Brindley Foundation

Created in collaboration with The James Brindley Foundation, this resource pack provides young people with practical, potentially life-saving knowledge around knife crime and personal safety. Through a series of short, engaging videos, learners will explore the realities behind knife carrying, understand how emergency services can be contacted in a crisis, discover the purpose of knife bins, and learn how everyday items could help save a life while waiting for professional support.

Designed to spark discussion and build awareness, these resources help young people make informed decisions, challenge misconceptions, and develop the confidence to respond appropriately in emergency situations.
