LNK works with a broad range of young people from the age of 8 up to 18 as well as a great number of local businesses – forging the connection between young people and prospective employers. The charity aims to assist young people by developing their skills and offering emotional and mental support.
I founded the campaign in July 2007 at the age of 14. The toll of teenagers being stabbed due to youth crime and gang culture made an impact on me and others around me. The campaign started with just a t-shirt in bold print to make a statement – which read ‘LIVES NOT KNIVES’.
LNK is a youth led charity that relies solely on public donation to deliver our educational programmes.
