Op Sceptre

Whilst carrying out patrols in Shrewsbury Town Centre the team have assisted with the National campaign Op Sceptre by visiting retail shops that sell knives and bladed items to offer advice, reassurance and education around Knife crime, whilst also ensuring the THINK 25 policy is followed.

Knife crime is low in our local areas, but we know the devastating consequences it can have. We are committed to reducing Knife Crime and this is why we work together with our communities to help protect them from harm. 

If you are concerned about someone who may be involved in Knife Crime, or on the periphery of becoming involved, please let us know. Or you can report this anonymously to Crimestoppers.
