London violence: What to do if someone is stabbed
About 13,503 knife crime incidents were recorded in the capital between July 2022 and June 2023, a 21% increase on the previous 12-month period.

We asked Katie Murray from Street Doctors to put together a guide so that anyone coming across a stab victim could potentially save their life.
