A safe space for our community: Public forum and support session
In light of recent events that have deeply impacted our town, it is more important than ever that our community comes together. To facilitate this, Knife Crime Victim Support (KCVS) and MMAP Workshops are partnering to host a dedicated public forum and support session focused on youth safety, safeguarding, and constructive dialogue.
This free event is designed to provide a safe, forward-looking environment for residents, parents, and young people to connect, process recent events, and look toward practical solutions for a safer community.
