In 2017, the Guardian documented the knife deaths of children and teenagers in Britain. The project continues with a creative response to that investigation, seeking to get behind sensationalist headlines and challenge misconceptions about knife crime in the UK.

We visited groups of parents, key support workers, and young people in Birmingham, Bristol and London. This is a snapshot of some of the most pressing issues, as seen by those who have been affected by knife crime.
