Afternoon, 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 at Ripley Market Place between 16:00 and 17:30 tomorrow the 14th November. They will be safely disposed of and it could prevent them getting into the wrong hands. |
