After a spate of fatal stabbings and calls for the government to treat knife crime with the same urgency as terrorism, police in North Yorkshire say they are holding a week of action to tackle the issue.

The number of fatal stabbings in England and Wales last year was the highest since records began.

Det Supt Steve Thomas, said: “Reports of tragic and life changing incidents involving knives and weapons remind us how all too easily a life can be taken away by someone’s reckless choice to carry a knife.

“Levels of knife crime in North Yorkshire are low, but we are not complacent, which is why we're supporting a national campaign to keep our county this way.”

Sgt Neil Northend, who oversees Youth Engagement for North Yorkshire Police, said:

“The North Yorkshire Police Youth Team will be raising awareness through schools with young people about the dangers of carrying knives and providing safety advice."

Throughout the week of action, officers will also undertake test purchasing in local shops to test their compliance with knife sale regulations to under 18s.

As part of the campaign people who have information about someone carrying a knife or about where knives are being sold illegally, are being asked to contact the North Yorkshire force.
