    30 Years of Safety Education Through Partnership Working

    30 Years of Lifesaving Safety Education Made Possible With Partnership Working 

    The Safety Centre was built on partnership working with organisations including Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue and Thames Valley Police to deliver key safety education messages to children and young people across the country. Thirty years on, this partnership working continues and in the latest of our videos celebrating our 30th birthday we’re talking with Paul Scanes, Head of Prevention at Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue and Matthew Barber, Police and Crime Commissioner for Thames Valley. They both talk about the impact of working together to promote safety within our communities today and in the future. As well as the importance of investing in safety education to support the prevention work of the fire service and police.

    Accessing Lifesaving Safety Education

    Our safety education workshops are delivered into schools across the country and schools visit our education centre Hazard Alley based in Kiln Farm Milton Keynes for immersive scenario based safety education. Our experienced and qualified education team cover topics including online safety, drug and alcohol safety, knife crime, road safety and violence against women and girls.

    December marks the arrival of the Knife Angel in Milton Keynes, created from 100,000 weapons seized by the police across the UK. During the month the Safety Centre will deliver life saving safety education to 1,500 Milton Keynes primary school students between 9-11 years old. Sessions focus on the dangers of carrying a knife, the life changing consequences of carrying and using a knife, the law around carrying a weapon or witnessing a knife attack and how to protect yourself, your future, your community and everyone around you.

    Knife Crime Safety Education Programme

    Our Choices and Consequences Knife Crime sessions are being delivered out into schools across the city of Milton Keynes as well as to students at the DONS Stadium, where the Knife Angel is situated between 1 December-8 January 2023. The sculpture created by the British Ironworks is positioned outside gate 1 at Stadium MK and at 27 foot high is a focal point of the Bletchley stadium precinct this December.

    Today we delivered our first knife crime education sessions into schools in MK and students wrote messages of hope to be displayed at the Knife Angel all December.

    The Knife Angel Arrives in MK

    Welcomed into Milton Keynes by a police bikes and horse escort with police horses Loki and Victor, the statue arrived on a foggy Thursday afternoon. Our education team and CEO joined our partners Thames Valley Police, MK City Council, MK DONS SET and the press to talk about the importance of our life saving education, being delivered this December and beyond to primary and secondary students across our region.

    Maya Joseph-Hussain Chief Executive of the Safety Centre said

    “We’re here today to talk about the lifesaving learning programme we’re delivering, challenging misconceptions around knife crime and highlighting the life changing consequences it can have. I was humbled to meet and speak with Jason Fathers, father of Jay who tragically died as a result of a knife attack in 2o21. We spoke about the importance of knife crime education for young people across the country and the devastating impact of knife crime on families and communities. Our education programme delivered by our expert team, approaches the challenging topic of knife crime in an age appropriate, sensitive way. We will be delivering sessions across the month of action in December and across schools in Slough when the angel moves on in January.”
