The courts security team remove weapons and knives from anyone entering the building and will be using our amnesty bin to deposit them. Knives collected will be included in the collection of 100,000 knives off the streets of the UK and included in the creation of the National Monument against Violence and aggression.

A second amnesty bin will be placed in the Taunton Deane Magistrates Court which will serve the same purpose.

This is phenomenal for the campaign. Not only do we have police forces, community groups, charities and individual activists installing our amnesty bins but now crown and magistrates courts too.

Courts conducting cases about knife crime and violence until now had no place to dispose of the confiscated weapons.

This process will begin with Taunton Crown Court and with the help of the home office, we are looking to assist any court in the country currently struggling with the same problem.
