From Monday 16th November, the Bradford West Neighbourhood Policing Team will be supporting Operation Sceptre, a national initiative aimed at raising awareness of knife crime and reducing the number of knives in our communities.
Part of this ongoing effort, we will be holding a series of knife surrender events across the Bradford West area. These events provide members of the public with a safe and anonymous way to dispose of knives and bladed articles that they no longer want or need.
No names, personal details, or identification are required. The surrender process is completely anonymous, allowing members of the public to dispose of unwanted knives safely and responsibly.
If you are transporting a knife to a surrender location, please ensure it is securely wrapped or placed in a suitable container and travel directly to the surrender point without making any unnecessary stops. This helps ensure your safety and the safety of others.
To make the events as accessible as possible, surrender points will be available at various locations across the Bradford West area throughout the week.
The events will operate for:
Three hours during the morning
Three hours during the evening
By providing convenient locations and times, we hope to encourage as many people as possible to safely dispose of unwanted knives and support our ongoing work to make Bradford's neighbourhoods safer.
Please look out for further information on locations and times throughout the week. Together, we can all play a part in reducing knife crime and keeping our communities safe.
