Helping young people

The young people of today are the leaders, teachers and role models of tomorrow. However, many bright futures are being cut short in the face of drugs, violence and gangs.

Today, a significant number of young people are being lured into street crime and gang activity. Last year, it was reported that a knife or blade was used in a crime every 16 minutes. With over 2,300 victims of knife crime aged 18 or under, it’s time we broke the cycle of violent crime impacting our young people, their families and their communities.

Breaking the cycle through Fearless

Fearless is our youth service aimed at 11-16 year olds. It is tasked with increasing awareness of the dangers surrounding street crime, drugs and violence. Armed with a belief in the power of prevention and intervention, Fearless aims to help our future generations navigate a safe path to adulthood.

How we do it

Guided by Crimestoppers, Fearless develops effective anti-crime resources for young people and their families. By delivering these materials to teachers, youth workers and community leaders, Fearless empowers young people to make positive decisions that prevent wasted lives and wasted futures.

With your contribution, we can reduce the number of young lives lost on our streets.
