Over just 18 days at the end of January and the start of February, three Bristol teenagers lost their lives.
Knife crime is a national issue that’s as complex as it is devastating, and it doesn’t exist in isolation. It’s set in a wider social context where housing, school exclusion, unemployment, mental health, and government cuts can be issues at play.
As part of Together for Change, a city-wide campaign with community leaders, campaigners, and the city’s media, the Cable will explore the social issues that underpin the knife epidemic in the city. We will amplify the voices of those most deeply affected, bringing communities, and authorities together to build a local effort to make a difference, building a task force, and lobbying the government for change.
In our latest Debrief podcast, reporters Priyanka Raval and Sean Morrison discuss why we’re joining the campaign, and why it’s so urgent.
As we were recording on Wednesday, news broke of another serious incident in St Paul's. A 30-year-old man was stabbed to death on Tuesday night, police later confirmed, launching their fourth murder investigation in East Bristol since June last year.
