A new national billboard campaign encouraging young people and communities to stand together against knife crime has been launched.

The new interactive campaign will run in phases throughout the next three months in urban residential areas across England and Wales. Young people will be encouraged to show their support by adding their own anti-knife photo pledges to the Bebo website. Their images will then be included on later versions of the posters in the series which will be unveiled by the Home Secretary next month.

Further information is available from the Home Office press release.
