AMNESTY BINS TODAY & TOMORROW

AMNESTY BINS TODAY & TOMORROW

This week, we are taking part in a range of activities as part of Operation Sceptre, the national fight against knife crime.

We are encouraging anyone with unwanted knives to hand them in to us this week – you may have old knives which you don’t use any more, or you may have had a knife that was legal to own privately but, under the updated Offensive Weapons Act, this is no longer the case.

Whatever the reason, hand them in to us using the amnesty bin, the local team are going to be at Peak Dale today (Wednesday) in the main car park 2pm-3:30pm and then tomorrrow will be at Hope main car park 10am-12pm.

They will be safely disposed of and it could prevent them getting into the wrong hands.
