The Fight AgainstKnife Crime.
Free knife crime prevention resources into schools. Funded by businesses. Delivered by Knife Crime Matters.
A Registered CIC
Making Real Change.
Knife Crime Matters CIC was founded with a single purpose: to reduce knife crime through education, awareness and community presence. We are not a campaign. We are not a charity rattling a tin. We are a structured, registered Community Interest Company, accountable, evidenced, and trusted by some of the country’s leading organisations.
Our Founder and Director, Andrew Brown, has built Knife Crime Matters into a nationally recognised organisation working alongside British Transport Police, football club foundations, construction firms, housing associations, and local authorities, delivering resources directly into schools, for free.
Every partnership we form, every mural we install, every resource we put into a classroom is documented, evidenced, and publicly acknowledged. This is structured, impactful community investment.
Three Pillars of Community Action.
Everything Knife Crime Matters does falls into one of three areas, each designed to create tangible, lasting impact in communities across the UK.

Trusted By Those Who Use Our Work.
I wanted to thank you for the Knife Crime booklet and resources. Upon careful evaluation, I find these materials to be of praiseworthy quality and relevance. Moving forward, I intend to incorporate these resources into our curriculum, as they align well with our educational objectives and contribute meaningfully to our efforts in addressing knife crime.
It is amazing what you are achieving in spreading the word. Almost every day on the news we are hearing of knife crime incidents, anything you and others can do to reduce this ridiculous waste of lives, the better the world will be. Please do keep it up and we are more than happy to support in some small way.
