Your Voice. Your Choice.

Support young people to be Fearless in Gloucester

Your Voice. Your Choice.

Are you a young person who wants information about knife crime? Click here to get information that’s been created for you.

Fearless has been working with SkillZONE at Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue and Gloucestershire Police Cadets on a campaign to divert young people away from carrying a knife.  

Your Voice, Your Choice highlights how making the right choices can make a big difference – and maybe even save a life. We want young people to know that they always have a choice – even if it doesn’t feel like it.  

Using their voice to tell someone about what they know, what they’ve seen or what they’re worried about is the right thing to do – and they can do that completely anonymously, without anyone knowing that they spoke up, through fearless.org

We’ve created a series of resources to help you open conversations, talk about making good choices, create lessons or promote Your Voice. Your Choice in your setting or via social media platforms. 

To accompany the above video, we have created a lesson plan and accompanying presentation you can use with your students, available to download via the links below:
