Keep Sheffield Stainless

Help Stop Knife Crime

Our Mission

There has been a worrying increase in knife crime around the UK, including Sheffield, in recent years – and nothing will change if nobody takes action. We soon realised that young people were the main target and offenders of these attacks, so we decided to try and reduce knife crime by educating the youth of Sheffield; and this is where Keep Sheffield Stainless began.

Here at Keep Sheffield Stainless, our team of volunteers work to create a safe place for those affected by knife crime to come together, and to reduce the number of knifes on the street. We hope that people will notice the work we are doing, and will be inspired to stop knife crime in other areas of the UK. We believe we can significantly reduce the number of people injured and killed by knifes by working together.

Knife Collection
Turn in your knives


One of the main responsibilities we have taken on, for the good of the local people, is a free knife/weapon collection and disposal service in and around Sheffield. Our volunteers work to reduce knife crime by safely collecting weapons in an agreed location – while following police guidelines and documenting all collections.
