More than 230 school children in Lancashire have reportedly responded to the gospel following a tour encouraging them to put down their knives.
The No More Knives Tour from Manchester-based Christian charity The Message, in partnership with local police, has challenged thousands of young people in secondary schools across Lancashire and Manchester to lay down their knives.
As the devastation left by knife crime across the UK increases, the campaign began in secondary schools across Manchester at the start of 2020 and has gained momentum.
